Macallan 12 and Balvenie Doublewood. Those are the two I see suggested most often, and I've seen quite a few of these threads.
Others typically mentioned: Glenlivet 12 (where i started), Glenfiddich, and Glenmorangie.
Stick to a Speyside single malt, from whatever advice you choose to follow. They have less peat/smoke, and more sweetness than a highland or Islay (last thing u should try as a Scotch noob is an Islay).
Scotch is fun. Get some, and have some fun.
Johnny walker Blue when I get a good deal on it.
I love Islay scotches, but it is indeed a taste that needs to be developed. Just as it would be foolish to draw conclusions about cigars in general after smoking one brand, the same is true with scotches. Sample different brands and even within brands offerings of different ages as you'll be surprised how different they can be, not only due to extra age but in many cases different aging techniques and types of barrels used.
I just started dabbling in scotch and the Belvanie Doublewood is awesome.

and the Balvenie 12 year Limited Reserve is ultra smooth.
Also the Balvenie Cask strength is great IMO as well as the 21 Portwood.

Good point...Perhaps rephrasing to say "What kind of Scotch do you drink with your cigars?" would put it in acceptable post for this forum?

Maybe the smoking part was implied. 😟
