My parents drink a lot of Scorsby. It's a lot like Dewars but way cheaper.

However, McCormick's has them beat on cheap and nasty I'd suspect.

Usher's Green Stripe: $12 per 750 ML bottle
McCormick's Blended Scotch: $8 per 750 ML bottle

That was the "bar scotch" in the bar/bowling alley where I worked part time. I started out on that and since then it has been no where but up. Macallan's 18 graces my liquor cabinet these days along with Glen Morangie 12.
