Okay Macallan, YOu'd be proud of me!! I've been trying to get more knowledgeable about scotch, and learning to get the Scotch cigar pairing down right. The other night I had the opportunity to drink some Macallan 18. In fact I had so much it put me out the next day, the only thing I could do was sit in the steam room for about an hour (I* still managed to have a couple cigars that night too). I've tried Johnny Black, Green and gold and to be honest can't really tell the difference between any of them. I can only tell the difference with the ones that are heavy on peet (is that right), the real smokey ones. What is it in scotchs, and the different blends that makes one stand out over the other. When I have a cigar with scotch, I can't yet see how they compliment eachother as much as say Port or a good microbrew does for me. Maybe I'm not a scott man. I guess what I'm asking, is will the palat develop with Scotch as it does with Cigars?
