That is quite true, but the subject of this thread is "A great use for
good Scotch," and I therefore limited my comments to GOOD scotch.
A agree that there is s W I D E spectrum of taste and style, even
among good -- or excellent -- single malts. I prefer the "peat
monsters" from the southern shore of Islay, but I also find
Glenmorangie quite appealing. (I agree Glenfiddich is no very
satisfying, and would rather select a blended whisky.)
For a Rob Roy or for flavoring a dessert, I would use a decent blended
whisky rather that wasting a good single malt.
That would involve buying a bottle of lesser whisky. As good little
consumers we should not be enabling mediocrity.
