I'd had a Gin Buck (gin, lemon juice, and ginger ale) before, but never a Whisky Buck. My first impression was, "Well, it's a whisky cocktail." But after the second sip, Laphroaig's signature smoky character started to shine through without being overpowering, and it became surprisingly delicious. It's nice to enjoy whisky this way once in a while. I think I'll try making one at home.
