I prefer Glenlivet to Teachers mainly because I'm against under aged drinking.  My malt whisky has to be at least 8 years old!!

I love Glenlivit, but when I don't have enough money for it, I enjoy Teacher's a lot.

I like to drink scotch while I play - but for this tourny it will be specifically Glenlivet

Is this Scotch Game or Goering Gambit?
