Scatch on da Racks...

Scotch is whisky made in Scotland. There are five basic kinds of scotch: Single Malt Scotch Whisky, Single Grain Scotch Whisky, Blended Malt Scotch Whisky (formerly called "vatted malt" or "pure malt"), Blended Grain Scotch Whisky, and Blended Scotch Whisky.

At Bradley Liquors, we mostly sell single malts and blended scotches. We carry a great selection of single malts like the Balvenie and Carolan. For one customer we got a bottle of the Macallan 21--a 21 year old single malt scotch considered to be the best in the world.

For blended Scotches, we carry the gold standard--Johnnie Walker Black, as well as Johnnie Walker Red. We also carry other types of Johnnie Walker, the Dimple Pinch, Clan MacGregor, Dewar's White Horse, and basic Seagram's, and more.

Scotch tends to be high in alcohol content--it runs from 80 proof to 188 proof--and is best enjoyed unmixed, neat or on the rocks. It is typically served in a rocks glass--a half tumbler. It is sometimes mixed with water or club soda.

Scotch is considered the classic "man's" drink although in these modern times, many women drink it also. It's the drink they enjoy on the television show, "Mad Men". Scotch is a classic drink enjoyed among gatherings of friends, where the company is warm and the conversation lasts long into the night.

All right? If you'd like a bottle of good Scotch for under $20, stop by Bradley Liquors on Main Street in Bradley and we'll help you pick something out. Until then, stay dry in this rainy weather. SEE YA!
