I've had a number of good, highly-recommended Scotches, and I must be a
Philistine or something, because the Bulleit brand of bourbon is just more
appealing to me.
(Fortunately for me, my favorite liquor store carries it in a wonderful
assortment of sizes. And one of the groups I hang out with includes a
good cadre of folks for which that is THE bourbon, so it's a pretty safe
present if I feel the need to give someone a present besides, say, a My
Little Pony. And I only gave *that* because T. said he'd never had a
pony and he wanted a pony.)
