Digi, I like single-malts but I’m very much an amateur. I have scouted out the territory, though, and I gave a bottle of Laphroaig to my Dad as a present several years ago. He was the real Scotch drinker though he didn’t actually drink all that much.

EmeraldK, I like Glenfiddich, too. Trouble is, I can often make a bottle last five years.
Last night was a sort of special occasion: my Dad received a posthumous award which my sister and I accepted on his behalf. TheMom and I shared a bit of the Macallans in his honor when I got home.

Actually, Digi, I’m even an amateur at wines…no systematic approach, little formal tutelage/terminology/etc…but have been at it with some enthusiasm for three decades. My Dad went to wine tastings etc. and tried to impart some of his experience to me.
