Agreed, also a great choice!

I personally like Oban 14, McCallen's 18 and Glenlivit 18. If you have a Costco in your area you might try the Kirkland 18yr, it is actually McCallens and about $50.00.

I really like the Clyenish 14yr a great bang for buck at $40. Also Highland Park 18 at $60. The Lagavulin 16yr is in a class by itself.

I just had Highland Park 12 last night. I think this has moved into my top 4 scotches. Very good scotch IMO.

Highland Park is really good stuff... (I was buying the boxes that came with a sample of the 18yo. It made me want to spend too much money on scotch.) I think I like The Balvenie better, but I haven't made up my mind.

The Balvenie doublewood is in my top 4. I almost bought the 15 year single barrell Balvenie over Highland Park last night. It was tempting but I didn't wanna spend 80 bucks on a scotch last night.

Re: Need a good single malt scotch . . .
I'll add to the Dalwhinnie 15 camp. I'm down to 1/3rd of my first bottle. Its a little tingly and spicy at first. The finish on it is very good, and makes you want to lick your lips and study it. It runs about $45-55 a bottle depending on where you find it. I usually pick my stuff up at duty free. For a single-malt, its a good one to start with, as it was one of my first.

Another one I would reccomend is the Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban. Its another Highland 'extra-matured' with a bit of a spicy kick at first. I think its a little more spicy than the Dalwhinnie. It also runs about $50-55 a bottle (1 liter, not 750).

I don't think you could go wrong with either one.

Regards,
Randy
