    It may not be the least expensive but hands down my favorite is Laphroaig!

    Since this has turned into yet another "my favorite single malt" thread, I'd be interested in the OP clarifying his original question.

    AA - I believe each of us have our own opinions on what is best Scotch for the money. To be able to definitively answer the hypothetical question posed would be impossible. Long live the Distillers who keep us happy.

    I happened to be shopping for a bottle of whisky for a friend and the owner of the store recommended a speyside named Tamdhu. I have never heard of this particular label, but he sang its praises most eloquently. Plus at $24.99 per, I had to try it. I must say, most enjoyable, and the best 10 year old I have ever had - clean, fruity and refreshing with little aftertaste. All things considered, it's my new favorite.

    Thanks! I almost bought a bottle of Tamdhu the other day, but didn't, thinking "What if it's horrible?" Now, I'll go back and get it...!

    Cool Tamdhu

    So after reading this posting last evening I just happened to drop by the local ABC (Liquor) here in Virginia and low and behold I came across Tamdhu for $19.99 a bottle sitting here at the moment with a wee Dram and I must say I certainly agree with the above statement fruity I taste a bit of Pear & Peach followed quickly with a dash of Pepper and a very clean finish and no distinct aftertaste , so I too have to add this to my favorite list , though my main standard is Glennfiddich 12 or 15

    If you aren't set on a single malt, the Famous Grouse is quite inexpensive and, to my mind, quite good, especially at the price.

    Famous Grouse now has an all-malt vatted offering, 'bout $35-$40 as I recall, that I find really excellent.

    I could not agree more with my learn-ed friend.

    Hello stranger, nice to see you back.
