After quite a bit of "research" I decided I'm not a big scotch fan. I don't like the burnt barrel taste that seems to be synonymous with scotch.
A friend introduced me to Woodford Reserve and I've been drinking that ever since. Very good tasting bourbon IMO.

As far as scotch goes, if you like those sweet vanilla/carmel notes from the Bourbon, you might like something like Bowmore Darkest. trying the blended scotches , most use some lowland malts, which I find to be a bit raw. I flip back and forth between scotch and bourbon, I like them both. What I don't really like is Rye, which probably makes me a bad Canadian.
