The coke masks that bourbon smellBeing a Scotsman myself I completely understand - but that Japanese malt is definitely worth a try. The malt much better than the grain, which while OK is left behind by even plain singles.
Just spare a thought for me having to live amongst the Bourbon-barbarians who absolutely have to drown anything remotely resembling whisky in ice and fizzy cola.
Sacrilege.
Crown Royal/rocks please.
