I voted scotch even though I drink more bourbon, because I can get a really good bottle of bourbon for $25. But I like scotch more.

Except I got a bunch of scotch for Christmas... so there's that.
My wife actually got me one of those scotch by the dram boxes, so I've been able to try a new scotch every night!
Bourbon 🥃. I like scotch too, but not anything peated, smoked, or dirt flavored. Speysides, and mostly just balvenie. Bourbon just has the great caramel flavors that you just don't get from anything else.

Scotch for me. Speysides of course.

Yup... but I like the peaty stuff, too. Have to be in the mood for it, though. Much prefer the speysides.
I prefer Scotch whisky over bourbon as it seems better suited for drinking straight up. I use Bourbon as a mixer, unless it's shots.
Having said that, I'm drinking blended Scotch this evening... 😟
I keep trying scotch but all I smell is dirty socks.
Q
You RUBES...
If a Cask Strength scotch isn't available I usually go for that peaty salty complexity of an islay.
Abstain...sigh...
