I do find some a bit :shock:
As an aside I noticed Glenmorangie in the Co-op this morning for a third off (£19 something)

Glenmorangie is fairly middling in terms of body and peatiness, and as such does have a bit of a kick... it wouldn't be my first choice for someone who is a little wary of whisky.
My top tips for being the least challenging and easiest drinking of malts would be either Benromach 10yo, Cardhu 12yo or Dalwhinnie 15yo.
A malt whisky noob should be fine with either of those, and each has enough interesting aromas and tastes (if savoured), to develop an appreciation of what malt whisky is all about.
If they're still too challenging, then maybe whisky just isn't for you. :wink:
