So last night I got to try Makers 46, Talisker 10, Ardbeg and Macallan fine oak 15.

The Macallan 15 was an easy favorite but they were all enjoyable. Ardbeg is pretty similar to Bunnahabhain

The Talisker reminded me a bit of Oban

And just to be clear, it's absolutely delicious and dangerously drinkable. But I wouldn't call it a Manhattan.

I always wondered how these were. Do you drink it over ice, I presume?
