To enjoy neat whisky, you have to feel it burning its way down your throat and seering the lining of your tum. So arguably, the cheapest harshest gut rot is the way to go.

My beau bought a bottle and left it at mine for when he fancies a post-prandial. He knows there's no chance of me helping myself to it.
