I am graduating this weekend from school(it’s masters degree and I’m 30’years old) and I am looking to celebrate the weekend with an amazing scotch. Don’t have a preference with the type. Looking for something within $500. TIA

I realize you just want a good celebration bottle, but if you’re trying to get into scotch, there are some pretty significant differences between the regions. I’d recommend picking up 3 or 4 quality picks from different regions rather than a single big bottle. For example, my taste is toward the Islay strands. Lagavulan and Ardbeg both have great picks in the $120 range.

Also if you are a fan of Macallan (i.e. sherry flavor) and like oily mouthfeel, Macallan Rare Cask is worth trying. It glides down your throat.

Laphroaig 25 is pretty good and in that price range.

Congrats. What do you like, and what do you dislike? I might suggest the Balvenie Mash Tun, but you might not like whisky with any Sherried flavor.

My go to favs - aberfeldy, macallan 12, glenlivet 14, laphroaig

Legent is tasty! This bourbon is finished in red wine and sherry casks, and blended by Suntory Master Blender Shinji Fukuyo - who has experience with truly legendary distilleries Hakushu and Yamazaki. A bourbon with noticeable fruit, caramel, and vanilla elements — and a very good bourbon for $40 at Total Wine. I’d rate it 4 out of 5 stars.
