Teacher's Highland Cream
Review by: dustbunna

For anyone not familiar, Teacher’s is an inexpensive bottom-shelf blended Scotch put out by Beam Suntory– the blend built its reputation on having a high percentage of peated malt from Ardmore in their malt:grain ratio.

What is your Telltale Sign that It's Time to Start looking for Another Job?
I think mine is the frequency at which I call-in sick. When it gets to the point that I’d rather take a mental-health day everyday than go to work for just one day, I think that is a sign it’s time for me to go.

When Jesus said, "Be wise as serpents and innocent as doves", who was he speaking about?
