I like both but if there was a choice it will be bourbon

[@robertshay9235]

Everything you said makes sense. I feel bourbon is straight forward where as scotch seems that the blending is very important. Am I wrong? Cheers

[@BottleRaiders]

Thanks! Blending is very important for both bourbon too though! All depends on what the Master Blender wants to achieve🥃

[@great207]

I drink and enjoy both, but prefer Scotch.

[@cartermayfield]

Yes, I know the difference. I was not aware of the 3 year minimum on scotch. Bourbon does not have a minimum age, but to be labeled a “straight bourbon,” it must be aged 2 years or more and if less than 4 years, must contain an age statement somewhere on the bottle.
If it just says “bourbon” on the label, it can be aged for less than 2 years, but it must be put into new charred oak at some point.
I like them both, but I own much more bourbon than scotch.

[@BottleRaiders]

Thanks for clarifying this point!
I like them both too, but I own a lot more Scotch than I do bourbon. The collection is growing though! Cheers🥃

[@uweh.]

I prefer Scotch, but also from time to time Bourbon. Cheers from Germany

[@BottleRaiders]

I'm the same really!

[@jeremytan559]

Well...I love my BT and BL anyway depends on situation and with whom I drink..

[@VitaliyFlyers]

You are a beautiful Scottish Celtic! I love Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 single malt whisky aged 12 years and older from the Speyside region (Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, Glenfarclas, Glenmorangie, Mortlach and many others)! But sometimes I can drink Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Lagavulin 16, Talisker 10, Caol Ila, Ardbeg)! I will write to you now in your Scots language. 👇🏻

Bourbon is way better in my opinion. I have only enjoyed 2 types of Scotch that i liked

[@ErnieBert-eg8kd]

I love them both

[@BottleRaiders]

You and me both 🥃

[@ErnieBert-eg8kd]

@@BottleRaiders I was on a smokey scotch kick for about a year but now I have been enjoying many bourbons for about the last six months. 🥃

[@BottleRaiders]

Nice!!

[@chrishowell5491]

Bourbon is sickeningly sweet to me. Scotch!

[@Whiskeats]

Scotch handsdown

[@BottleRaiders]

Nice! 🥃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Skwurm2297]

Such a narrow view of bourbon. Bourbon comes in many variations, with a very diverse flavor profile.

[@BottleRaiders]

I had 60 seconds!

[@parth281995]

Bourbon.

[@BottleRaiders]

Nice!

[@vishalsingh8288]

So you mean bourbon is easy on tongue?

[@AdornationMusic]

Scotch any given day ❤
Irish whiskey sometimes 🎉
Bourbon 😮 never liked it

[@BottleRaiders]

I’m mostly a Scotch girl too!
Thanks for sharing 🥃

[@stephenturner3211]

The difference is that scotch is disgusting and bourbon is nectar of the gods

[@BottleRaiders]

😂😂😂 each to their own I guess

[@jameslacey5341]

Bourbon is KING!!!

[@TheJoshtheboss]

You must be joking. Bourbon isn't even in the same league. Next you're gonna say Jack Daniels is whiskey

[@jameslacey5341]

@TheJoshtheboss No, I do not drink, Jack Daniel. You can take your Scot drinking use barrel self back to Scotland 😆 !
