You might think single malts are always more expensive. Not true. You can grab a perfectly good single malt for $30. And you can spend $500 on a luxury blend like Johnnie Walker Blue.
Price is about rarity, age, and marketing. Don’t let snobs tell you one is “better.” The best whisky is the one you enjoy. Period.
