Now, you may never have heard of Laphroaig 10(pronounced lafroyg) scotch but it's one of my favorites (a smokey, medicinal punch). It is, however, probably one of the most polarizing scotches out there. Some people love it, probably more hate it. Either way though, it elicits a powerful response from the drinker.
Anyways, I guess the boys at the distillery have decided to promote this in a new online ad of people trying it for the first time. It's fun to see the range of impressions from horror to love. I guess I enjoy the taste of a "burning hospital."
Fireball is okay, it's cheap though and good for women . When I want whiskey I go for several: Jameson, Green Label, Black Label or J&B Scotch. If they have neither of those I will get some high shelf. I'm not a fan of cheap whiskey. I order it straight (no ice) or 2 rocks depending on weather.

Sexist much? Why would a woman like a cheap chemical cinnamon whiskey because of her gender?
Anywat....I normally see young males drinking it as shots.
I tried Maker's Mark recently...
I typically drink whiskey straight on the rocks....
But that stuff is stronger than any other whiskey I've had....
I usually go w/ Jack Daniels, lol

I will agree that it was a bad way to say what I wanted to say and it does sound a bit sexist in that light. What I meant was, it isn't as strong as regular whiskey, as most women (not all) prefer to drink the flavored stuff.

That's a great campaign. I wish light beer producers would mimic it ("Tastes like... um, not much of anything? But at least it's more socially acceptable at a cookout than Perrier!")
I am not a fan of Laphroaig. But I do love Lagavulin, which is just a jog away on Islay. Both are very smoky, but the Laphroaig is more medicinal and to me, has a nasty taste like burnt microwave popcorn that you left in too long. I've wondered whether the Laphroaig 10-year would improve if they let it sit as long as the Lagavulin 16.
Well upthread somebody mentioned Lagavulin is $65-$70 in NYC. I live in PA, where it's $82, but last Christmas while visiting relatives in Long Island, I found a bottle for $54. But I'm not saying where as I'm going back there this Christmas and want to ensure there's at least one bottle left to purchase
