    Its the dang "accessories" that put the nail in the budget coffin!

    NEVER tally the expense of something you truly love. Will ruin it..very quickly.

    Be sure to keep enough for a wee bit'o scotch fer when yer done tryin' 'er on.

    Personally, I ALWAYS make sure there's at least $200.00 left over for a fifth of Blue label.

    Chris.

    Chris-

    JWalker Blue (pricey as it is) is still a blended whisky containin' grain alcohol... only about 35% is single malt - the rest is cheapo grain whisky...

    do yursel a BIG favor and buy a bottle of each of the Single Malts that go into JWalker.... they are: Caol Ila, Talisker, Dailuaine, Royal Lochnagar, Cardhu...

    each bottle will cost between $35-$65 and you will have a wonderful tastin experience!
