Need a Good Bottle of Scotch
-
I'm a fan of any 18 year old scotch, really. Macallen is one of my favorites. Dalwhinnie is great. I recently fed Scott some Johnnie Walker Gold label, though, with no complaints.

McAllen 12 is my go too, but I am slowly getting pulled to Laphroaig especially if a good cigar is involved.

<threadjack> Have you tried Nubs? I'm a big fan of them, and I really love all of the Oliva cigars, especially the V torpedoes.

@Grey I have and they are good. My current favorite go to stick is the Don Peppin Cuban Clasic My top shelf stuff I try to keep in the humidor is the My Father Flor De Las Antillas, The My Father Le Bijou 1922, and a good LFD Chisel tip.

@thanksajdotcom That is good, but you you find that Smokey, you may want to avoid anything that says Islay on it.
Just about to order a bottle of the Caol Ila 18 ( @Grey ) for what is turning into our weekly whisky evening at the office.

Laphroaig makes you cry inside a bit.
Strange, it just makes my beard grow thicker
Laphroaig Quarter Cask, best bottle under $100
Schnay! I say, schnay! Laphroaig 10yr. Cask Strength, a.k.a. "Red Stripe".
Edit: Although the Quarter Cask is indeed dandy.

I love that stuff. One of my favs.

Balvenie has been mentioned up post. One of the first distilleries to do the double cask thang. Some dandy offerings. Indeed. Yet I prefer their 15yr. old single cask. Ya' know, the stuff the master pulls and sets aside prior to double caskin'.... Dandy elixir. Indeed. If you can find it.
Other Faves:
-
Talisker: Robert Louis Stevenson's poison of preference.
-
McCallan 12yr. Sherry Wood, Cask Strength. No longer exported to USA. But damn, I sure wish I'd not let my wife's neatness OCD polish off the last quarter bottle from my stash... ;(
-
Glenmorangie 18yr. Old Deep citrus, orange notes from that d'oroloso finish. Recommended.
