What's your favorite single malt Scotch Whisky?

First and foremost......the ones that others buy for me

Then, in no particular order - 12 yr Cragganmore; Glenmorangie Port Wood Finish; Oban; The Glenlivet, The French Oak Finish aged 12 years; and I'm sure there are more that I just can't think of right now.

We've been trying all the single malts that our package store has and there are a few!! And yes, my wife likes it too.

double the bar bill!!

RR, I'm not sure if you've already visited, but be sure to check out a sister forum to this one, The Pub. You will likely see some familiar names over there.

Lagavulin, a 16 y/o single malt Islay. It's similar to Laphroaig, but smoother, yet smokier. A fine drink, for about $85 a bottle. Try one at a Pub and let us know what you think.

Oban...plain and simple.

Laphroaig!

Tomatin 12 year is really good, and relatively inexpensive at $30 a bottle. Bowmore is a nice Islay from my experience. I have heard good things of Glenfiddich, Oban, and Glanmorangie... now that someone has given a nod to the Port finish...which is the one I was wanting to try anyhow... I may have to give it a try. Speyburn is an OK Speyside variety, and it can usually be had for little, around $20 if I recall, maybe $25.

Jura is worth a mention

That was the first Scotch Whiskey RR steered me to at the Flagstaff Games. What a great way to be introduce to Scotch.... and what a horrible way $85 a bottle

. I always knew I had expensive tastes. Still that's why I haven't got any of the really expensive stuff in the triple digits, my school teacher pay will only support so much.... and I still have Kilts to by.

Right now I'm sipping a Laphroaig 10, it's very nice. Well Cheers...
