Any ideas on what would go well with in gift basket centered around
Single Malt Scotches? I'm going to pick up a pair of nice rocks glasses
and a book on single malts to put in it but am stuck on what else. The
sole restriction is no wheat.

Holy bogs, Batman! Just a bit pricey, eh?
I would love to attend a scotch tasting, held like
a wine tasting does? I'd love to learn more about
the various scotches. I don't really even like
scotch, but I'd love to learn anyway.

Saturday Night and Sunday Morning? The latter represented by a gourmet coffee
and a blueberry oatcakes mix. ;-)

There are some really interesting websites on single malt scotch and on
scotch tastings.

Err...maybe I should have added that the recipient is my MIL. She's not
a cigar smoker, poor dear, but maybe some Nat Shermans would round it
out nicely.

I adore the idea of poker cards, that will be great for the reaction,
maybe a tinted green plastic visor too?

Playboy...see above, I'm not going there.

What a deal! Looks like the three month salary guideline now applies to
scotch too. ;)

In the UK they talk about a "toothful" of gin. I couldn't afford a thimble
full of this scotch. :-)

Your basket sounds perfect to me. What else could possibly be needed?

Michael, Marcel had regular Scotch, Johnny Walker Black and luckily a
1.75 bottle, so that there was plenty for you to enjoy. :o) It costs
only about $80.00 and less on sale, when we buy it. There is a
Scotch our doctor likes, Royal Salute and the only time we can afford
to get it for his birthday or other holiday is, when someone goes to
Europe and brings it back from the Custom Free Shops. Even then, a
small .75 bottle costs way over $100.00, most likely around $125.00.
The dollar is terribly weak right now. :o(

The Single Malt Scotch can go very high. I would not advise you to
get used to it.

Is Playgirl still published? She might be old, but I'll bet she ain't
dead.

when shared with a close intimate friend.

"close intimate" friend... wouldn't that be a redundancy, or do you know a um,
position I don't know? hehe

I forgot to add:

CHOCOLATE!
The good stuff- no Hershey bars. A nice smooth bittersweet chocolate would
work well.
