SC is very sweet so I agree that some of the peatier ones would not be a god choice. A bourbon like Makers Mark, the honey version of JD or just normal JD might be a good place to start but then just gradually move toward the single malts. Glenmorangie is quite warm. I would agree with getting miniatures though they can be ££

Glenfiddich 15 is by far my favourite. I like it neat with ice.

The Chardonnay cask aged Glen Moray is possible proof God exists ... even DW - who is most assuredly not a whisk(e)y drinker likes the aroma.

Whoever came up with the idea of re-using old barrels for whisky really deserves more credit - at least a place on a banknote Grin

I like a nice single malt, and prefer the darker coloured, less peaty ones. I had a lovely Japanese whisky recently, The Yamazaki I think it was called.

Also love a bourbon there's usually a bottle of Maker's Mark or Wild Turkey in the house. I was given a bottle of Sazerac Rye for Christmas and its so good.

I like a malt, such as dalwhinnie, welsh whisky Penderyn is lovely or an auchentoshan , or gelnmorangie, just have it over ice, don't like blended whisky or too peaty

I'd try some other bourbons and wouldn't waste the money on decent malts if you drink them with cokes or as shots.

Have a look at Masters of Malt website. You can build yourself a taster box of 50ml measures for around £20. That way you save splashing out on a bottle you don't like.

Crown Royal. I'm not a whiskey drinker really but that's lovely
