Comment from : @dhanashennaidoo6765

My two cents: try the Port Charlotte 10 Year from Islay However, I don't recommend it neat Try it with a dollop of water and it is a completely changes its' characterfloral, peaty and very smooth It has been my experience that whiskeys near 50 really go better with some water What is interesting is that once you reach cast strength (approx 60) that has been aged for 15 - 18 yrs the whiskey seems to be smooth out and is perfect neat The best Scotch I ever had was an 18 year old cask strength Glenfiddich brbrYears ago my wife worked for William Grant & Sons and on Christmas and Easter they gave each employee two bottles of anything they sold Needless to say I tried just about every Glenfiddich and Balvenie they produced What an introduction to Scotch

What about loch lomond and glen scotia? We never see those

Should have done label close-ups 😏

Ardbeg????? Sheesh Burn a rubber tire

Though it isn't always easy to find I'm still drinking Ballantines
Comment from : @arnoldpainal5885

I don't collect Scotch, I drink it
Comment from : @willdenham

You've got three Islay Whiskys there The Bunna 12, The Ardbeg, and the Bruichladdic which is their unpeated line Port Charlotte is their peated line
Comment from : @arieadevalois1564

Im not much of a drinker, however when i do, i like to just sip on a scotch whiskey I just found an amazing $11 Ive drank so many way way worse liquors for more money What i found was Scoresby blended scotch whiskey It tastes like oak barrels basically Its actually very nice Ive worked at liquor stores for years and not found that good of scotch and price
Comment from : @patrickbennett439

What’s SLB?
Comment from : @osamashatat

Totally agree with your choices I have 4 out of 5 that you showcased Don’t have the Arran…not familiar with it However, Laphroaig is a go-to also
Comment from : @thomasblevins1662

a 1/2 to full tsp of Ardbeg into any Irish whisky makes a tasty treat
Comment from : @perrybartelt1964

Please review ‘Limavady’ whiskey and 'Knappogue Castle' whiskey, which are tasty and affordable I think they are both Irish whiskies
Comment from : @johnzajac9849

It would help if you spelled the names of these so we could find them on the shelves of our liquor store
Comment from : @ChannelDeMaio

I enjoy watching this channel very knowledgeable keep making reviews
Comment from : @christopherSteidinger

With this economy I find miller light to be an extremely smooth but with a really rotten wood note … I miss my Scotch 😢

Damn inflation is insane

Trader Joe's scotch blend: 750ml for $10!
Comment from : @johnbusby5614

You had some before you started the video for sure 😂
Comment from : @fenilpatel9413

All excellent choices
Comment from : @MichaelCurrie71

I agree with these choices, they are all good But I do feel compelled to make a couple corrections, even though this is two years old now and no one is going to read thisbr1 Bunnahabhain is not peated They describe themselves as "Matured predominantly in ex-sherry casks, our whisky is known for being unpeated, natural colour and non-chillfiltered"br2 It is at least misleading to call Bunna the least peated Islay when The Classic Laddie is also from Islay and also 100 unpeated
Comment from : @contentioushackery

SPOT ON!!!
Comment from : @sergiomontesdeoca5955

Two you can certainly add to your list and both are cheaper than this current list is a Glenlivet 12 year or the Founder's Reserve, both are fantastic and also Aberfeldy 12 Both are remarkable for their price and will run you about $40-$45
Comment from : @Zmann86

Hate to tell you this but nobody would consider the whiskies you mention as underrated
Comment from : @Oldfatbastard57

Appreciate this one My experience with Scotch is very limited, but a trip to Scotland last April certainly kindled a desire to learn more FWIW, my favorite thus far is Oban 14
Comment from : @TMats100

I would add Port Charlotte 10 Heavily Peated
Comment from : @edwardrice146

Just stumbled onto your channel looking for info on knob creek Now im looking for info on scotch and I'm just thinking there should be schools for men out there teaching this stuff
Comment from : @johngonzalez1193

I know this video is 2 yrs old but can you write the list Can’t read the bottles to write than down
Comment from : @moniquegonzalez9276

Thanks! Great channel and great recommendations 😊
Comment from : @GMoneyMacTao

Can you please give the names here as it was not possible to clearly see their names Thank you!
Comment from : @navmats

Love these choices I’m all Islay now!!
Comment from : @christinecamley

3 of the five I have never tried, but I will soon be rectifying that
Comment from : @rayblanchard3633

gem of a video right here peace from the Caribbean
Comment from : @m47t41

At this point the video is about a year old and every one of these bottles are 20 to 30 dollars more than what he quotes lol I guess it is a the "New Big Thing"
Comment from : @trapture

Glenmorangie is my fave daily drinker and Caol Ila is a really overlooked Islay whisky
Comment from : @yehoshua77

I just picked up a bottle of Bunnahabhain, and love it! Great recommendation sir
Comment from : @joelsoon3219

I can get 4 out of the 5 at my LCBO store in Ontario, Canada My liquor store is reletively small so I'd have to order them online and have them delivered to the store but they are available (all but the Arron scotch whisky)
Comment from : @northernsilverstacker1641

I think the glendronach 12 deserves a spot up here
Comment from : @davidabreu-pm5wh

How about a slightly more expensive list of scotches?
Comment from : @ashersspicekitchen5965

Great suggestions, greatly appreciated, thanks Cheers
Comment from : @CDD1992AB

I wish you had a partnership with a online company that way you could put links in the description below
Comment from : @jasondavis126

I paid $75 for Ardbeg 10 the other day The struggle is real
Comment from : @Erin-bd6jg

What is the most you would pay for a great Single Malt Scotch?
Comment from : @freddieslaughter1107

Info on the aaron release??
Comment from : @joejoetallone

Totally beside the subject of this video, I wonder if y'all could do one of corn whisky some time Corn whisky is the orphan step child of American whiskey, but some of it's pretty good 🙂
Comment from : @WhiskyForBeginners

Is it just me, or does Ardbeg 10 year taste like a horse saddle?
Comment from : @djbemail77

great choices however I might have included a 10 year Talisker in that contest
Comment from : @MrSmackdab

Have you had Dalmore 12 year? For around $60-65 it is very good highlands whiskey
Comment from : @FrankTJ92

What's your opinion on j&b
Comment from : @williamfowler3699

No Glen Scotia?
Comment from : @markb3451

John BarrbrJohnny Walker Black & brGlenlivetbrAwesome taste, great price
Comment from : @robertnicoletti3846

I find thar some Scotch drinkers love a heavy peat Scotch Others, like me, detest peaty Scotch I tend to like a light single malt Edrador was great & kind of hard to find as the distillery was so small Right now my favorite is Devron 12 a nutty single malt, reasonably priced at around $50
Comment from : @Johnsouthshore

I'm a scotch drinker and john barr is exceptional
Comment from : @abbyarnold4477

All good choices for sure I also love the Lagavulin 16 which is the first peated whiskey I tried The Bunnahabin is great stuff especially the 21 And don't forget the Springbank, a great dram!!
Comment from : @bill-qv3er

Anyone planning a distillery tour trip book the tours way in advance I had a difficult time finding openings Toured Glenmorangie during the family trip Excellent experience
Comment from : @nodaysoff23

Love my Ardbeg, my son says, "It tastes like I'm chewing on a charcoal log" LoL but I would say that it's my special occasion Scotch Good memories just sipping it
Comment from : @rboysinmt

Do you actually drink scotch or just read off the label? Interesting choices
Comment from : @Tr4v3ler

You do such a great job
Comment from : @johnireland6301

Kurt just an idea As you put the bottles on the table top can you zoom in on them so we can see them
Comment from : @highridgegraphics2816

I don't know what drunkenness is! If I drink too much I just get dizzy
Comment from : @TahaTaha-yf8hn

Love bunnahabhain 12 Gonna have to give the 'classic ladie' a try as it's the only one I haven't on that line up Good video 👍
Comment from : @markrees6792

Dude you rule Ardbeg is a fine whisky Can't wait to try the others
Comment from : @badatlife8793

Job well done However, some remarks concerning ABV, chill-filtering and artificial coloring would be appreciated
Comment from : @ralph4840

Leaving for Scotland soon This was VERY helpful!
Comment from : @bartrhodes7122

Added the Arran to my list Thank you!
Comment from : @lesliepless2939

Lagavulin 16 is missing from your list!!!
Comment from : @joydeepsanyal1058

Great video Kurt, the Bunn 12 is amazing
Comment from : @jasonbrandt4173

Try EdradourbrTry Dalwhinnie 15 it's available for $65 or so when on salebrAnd don't forget Monkey Shoulder For $30 on sale, it is hard to beat
Comment from : @oldtimerf7602

Glenfarclas 12, $40
Comment from : @grapesodapopinski571

Johnny Walker black can’t be beat
Comment from : @thepatternforms859

Bunnahabhain is not peated There is a note of smoke/peat from water source
Comment from : @williambedard4375

Trenton, I wish you would zoom in on each bottle label Some of us are not great spellers so a zoom in on the labels would help greatly TIA
Comment from : @andreaward1382

Aaaaaaardbeg ! Love it
Comment from : @MaestroPdx

Love the Channel! Have you tried Craigellechie 13 out of curiosity? I have always found it a solid value for $50 Sorry if it has already been mentioned!
Comment from : @timothyjohnson3396

Since you don't have these listed in your notes, it would help if you included the spellings in an overlay on your video Great list! But only one piece of chocolate cake??? What's wrong with you?😂
Comment from : @fortyoneshades

Excellent choices I particularly like the Bunna It’s very very good
Comment from : @GrotrianSeiler

Sir, Is that first name with a C or a K ❓ just discovered your channel enjoying it very much
Comment from : @thedraminator6103

Kurt looks like Larry Bird
Comment from : @didi-qf3mo

Outside of monkey shoulder what 2 or 3 scotch would you recommend for a cocktail mixer?? Thanks for your opinion
Comment from : @hognut58

I see you did not include Laphraig 10 at all It is my go to for a peaty scotch Do you have an opinion on it?
Comment from : @nathanlambshead4778

If you like the Arrans finished Scotch I think you owe it to yourself if you haven't already, try both Dalmore 12 Sherry Cask finish and the Dalmore Port Wood Reserve The 12 has become my go to Scotch
Comment from : @paradiswest4395

The bunnahabhain isnt peated No smoke at all!
Comment from : @ouwe04

No Dalmore 12 on the listt!? I really need to try that second one you mentioned from Islay region Sounds lovely…not going ti attempt to spell the name though lol recently tried Monkey Shoulder finally and for 30 bucks i was blown awayy! Reminds me of a Creme Brulee type flavor profile
