I was out last night celebrating a now-official divorce with a little Macallan 18yr. One of my faves.

I've yet to try the 18 but the 12 is pretty f**king tasty. Someday when I can find a decent bar that serves the 18 I'll definitely have a glass.

I love the 12 but I can't stand the 18. Obviously you should try it for yourself but I expected it to be so much better and I was very disappointed.

I'll ask again, Anyone ever try James Buchanan 18 yo scotch?

Oh wow, that's disappointing especially considering the price point, $55 or so for the 12, the 18 is up around $160 a bottle. If I get the chance I'll try it though.

I agree completely that the 18 is underwhelming. Did not strike me as worth the extra coin by any means.

As to the Buchanan, the only one I've known to drink it is Miguel Cabrera

So your saying if it is good enough for him, it should be good enough for me?

I think this 12 will be part of my next scotch purchase. I keep hearing a lot of good things about this one. I need to find cheaper hobbies.....

It's dangerous, you might never go back!
