I'd say:
Cragganmore 12
Lagavulin 16
The Balvenie Signature 12
Glenfiddich 18
Talisker 57* North (I can't find the degree symbol, hence the *!!)
But this would likely change if you ask me in ... |

I paid the equivalent of around £25 for a Macallan 25 from El Gaucho restaurant in Aruba 5 years ago.

I'm currently sipping a Glen Moray Classic. Nothing exciting, but for a sub £20 malt it's not a bad one.

Whiskys bottled at that strength can really benefit from a decent glug. Add a bit, try it, add a bit more, try it - un ... |
