Actually there were a few reason
1) 	this is the first time I have had scotch and as I say I usually work
up to the strong flavors.  I would be happy to take you up on your offer
sometime as I would love to taste what "good scotch" is.  Maybe by that time
I will have improved my cooking enough that I can bring something to nosh on
that you would approve of and enjoy.
2) 	When I told my friend what I planned to do with the Dewars he
objected to the waste of what he considers not bad scotch and since we are
both going to Glengary I offered to let him help me out by drinking some of
it.
3) 	The bottle was free to me as it was given to my father about 10
years ago (one of his customers at the time gave him something like 3 or 4
bottles but none of them had ever been opened to this point).
4) 	Rather than cart this thing around forever I decided to do something
with it.

Rest assured I would never offer such a thing to someone like you who has a
developed taste for good scotch, but then I will probably never be able to
afford scotch of your caliber.  I will just have to find something else to
bribe you with at some point.  (I'm sure eventually I will need to find a
bribe for you) :-)
