[...] original whiskey liqueur is as unmistakable as it is classic: Drambuie may not be a spirit for all tastes, but, like Galliano or Campari, it's a staple you can't help but [...]

I miss the old bottle. It had a look like no other. If it’s possible to bring it back, please do so.

Thanks

I remember reading about the design, but the article did not feature an image. Then I saw the bottle and my heart sank a bit. With 25% of my ancestry being Scottish, the old bottle filled me with more than a wee bit of pride. Thankfully, I had a bottle at home that will become the permanent decanter for all future purchases. The new design makes me think they are going after an unsophisticated demographic that believes sleekly designed packages speak to a certain kind of hipness. Too bad – and more than a little sad.

I like Teacher’s Highland Cream in a Rusty Nail (light on the Drambuie). Traditional around here, Teacher’s nice price is just a bonus.

Bought a bottle last week and I don’t care for it. The clerk who rang me up agreed and recommended that I pour the contents into the old bottle. An aesthetic step down in my and the clerk’s book.

And I disagree with Chris’ response, as single malts can be a noteable improvement to blends in cocktails and can be worth the extra expense. Although sometimes the extra smokiness throws off the balance a bit. There is nothing sacred about single malts where you can’t use them on occasion for special cocktails. Or if you could afford it, in everyday cocktails.

I prefer Johnny Walker – Black for the day-to-day and Green label when I want to treat myself.

Only blends, Dewar’s usually. I’d never sully a single malt that way.
