    They both are fine....My preference is the Glenlivet. Note that there's a difference between Single Malt & Single Grain.
    Single grain whiskies do not have to be produced from malted barley - others like wheat, corn or rye could all be used, and they can be malted or un-malted. As a result, single grain whiskies are usually light bodied and tend to offer sweeter notes over smoky aromas.

    On a completely unrelated note I thought you were some sort of a health nut after seeing you mentioning your zero added sugar policy 😅

    My zero sugar policy is Scotch on ice... :P

    PS: No one else in the family takes any sugar.... The practice with me started a long ago....Not because of being a health nut, but because when everyone had to lick their palms with 1/4 lbs of Sugar per month during that nut case Sirimavo's wonderful progressive era, I quit sugar, simple and easy.👍

    Gotcha 👍

    I quit sugar in a bid to lose weight back in 2017, never started doing alcohol and have no plans to because I suck at moderation :yes:

    Me too started cutting off my sugar intake recently. I am addicted to having something sweet after my main meals. Now I prepare my own dessert with a small piece of honey melon, a banana, couple of table spoons of greek style yogurt garnished with bee honey. not sure whether this is the right thing to do :confused:

    u hv a good knowledge bro.. thanks for sharing
    I have been to the Glenlivet Distillery years ago. It's located in the beautiful parts of Scotland. They have a Whisky Tasting Tour probably costing 10 -15 £. Takes about a bit more than a hour and you get to taste a few of their Whiskies and learn about the industry. If you ever visit Scotland at least visit one of their famous distilleries.
