I like it on the rocks.

Yes. I guess I meant not mixed with Coke or something. You don't do that with the good stuff. I mix regular Jack with Coke. Single Barrel, Gentleman Jack, Makers or whatever go on the rocks.

Just get a good 12 year old+ single malt.

Philistines... you guys probably drink Coors Light and think it's beer...
Talking about Burbon when he asked about Scotch...
Just about any 12 y/o single malt is going to be good. I like Highland Park, and it's about a quarter the cost of JW Blue.
For blended whiskey, my vote goes for Famous Grouse... if you can find a bottle of Gold Reserve (the 12 year stuff) it is superb, and not pricey.
JW Green is what is considered a Malt Scotch... a blend of single malts, with no grain whiskey added. It's interesting, and hasn't always been available here in the US. The Grouse also has a similiar whiskey.
And always remember that Scotch is like a woman... the older it gets the better it is... and the more it costs...
