The Whiskey Noob review Macallan 12

The Macallan 12 year

A Scotch Whiskey Review by the Whiskey Noob

The Macallan flagship that you can probably find at almost any decent bar.  It’s a good starter scotch for a noob.  It’s easy to drink, not too complex and not too bland at the same time.

Nothing really special to say about it…it is what it is…

Kinda like when you go to a restaurant that has shit ton of options on their menu and no matter what, you always just see “cheeseburger”

You know it’ll always be there on the menu…

You know what it tastes like…

But will you order it knowing there’s are so many other options?

Ehhh…

I guees it depends on what else is available right?

If you go to a boujie ass steak house and you see all the delicious steaks that are offered on the menu, would you really just settle on a cheeseburger?

Then again, if you were at a complete shit hole for some reason and they offer nothing but salads and all of the sudden you see a cheeseburger, best believe Ima order like 2 or 3 of them!

buuuut, I guess that’s just me…
