Who else has a glass of scotch when they shave?

It's become quite a relaxing habit for me, an expensive one too!

I usually rotate my choice of scotch between Glenlivet 18, and Lagvulin 16

So who else does the same, and what scotch do you prefer?

Can't say thats ever crossed my mind. Coffee for me in the morning. Nothing wrong with a good glass of scotch, but I prefer it in the evening, after dinner.

I'm an Irish Whiskey drinker but your idea is a good one. This is the kind of "rotation" I could get into.

On weekends I might enjoy the Southern version - bourbon - with an evening shave. Otherwise, I'd be drinking on the job.

There's no way I could drink and shave. I'm bad enough at shaving on my own with out the help of Mr. Daniels, Mr Jameson, or Mr. Yuengling. Now Dr.Pepper might be fine.

Uh...I shave in the morning.
But, if it helps, I'll try it.

Glen 18 all the way

Scotch in the AM mixed with a little lather from my upper lip??? ... I'll pass. Plus I am a southern boy raised on Mountain Dew and Sundrop Golden Cola from the womb. I even forsake coffee for that golden elixir in the morning

I too am an evening shaver and often enjoy a glass with my shave.

I don't think the OP is shaving at 8am with a Scotch folks.

usually a bit early in the day to start with the scotch. Usually have a cup of coffee close by.

well we do drink the same scotch - lagavulin 16.

I am a morning shaver and my shave starts at little after 6am each day so it's water or OJ at that time for me.

I drink 2 cups of coffee before my morning shave. It's like having that Fusion Proglide motor built into your hand for more efficient shaving...or so I've heard. Next time I shave at night I may try a gin and tonic while shaving.

Finally! Someone who's on the same page .

I shave in the evenings when I get home from work, the shave is substantial enough that I don't show a shadow till I get home the next day.

Since most of you shave in the A.M, what scotch do you prefer in the evening?

Which do you enjoy, do tell!

That could certainly make things interesting.

I'm pretty sure most folks knew that and were just having some fun.

OK, so I should have built liquor storage into the new shave cabinet? Good Grief! Another AD.

If I was an evening shaver, I still don't think I'd want to be that relaxed. Every once in a while I'm shaving in the AM having had a bad ice cube the night before. That's what the milder razors are for if you get my meaning.

I shave in the mornings, so no drinking for me during the shave.

I'd prefer a glass of brandy over Scotch, but if it had to be Scotch, then Talisker or Ardbeg would be my choice.

Maybe Phil should start selling Scotch too.

Not a good idea in my case (I used to shake too much in the morning when I'd been drinking). Think I'll stick with coffee!

if i had a glass of scotch when i shave i don't think i would be able to shave

Another evening shaver here.

During the summer months I'll generally have a mixed vodka tonic..., during the winter I'll have a 'neat' Scotch or Bourbon.

Brands are as varied as my shave soaps and creams.

Some days my face looks like I had a few benders, but believe me I'm sober as a judge.
