Ardbeg make fantastic whisky. But there's a limit to how much people will pay for fantastic whisky. In my case, somewhere between £25 and £100, and I think this is probably reflective of most wh ... |

Can't really argue with Talisker 10 at £27.50.
I always stock up with a few when they are discounted through fear that Diageo will put the price up and keep the NAS versions for the special off ... |

Not my absolute favourite, but not a bad whisky, and a bargain at £15!
Amazing to see a 12-year old whisky of any description at such a low price these days. |

Lagavulin 8 currently £38 in Tesco (with Clubcard) is pretty decent if you like strong Islay flavours. |

Keep hold of the Lagavulin. You may well come round to it in the end.
People often equate Talisker with a similar peatiness to Highland Park, but there is a lot of variance between batches. A few y ... |

My max spend is usually around £50, and I find you can get some really decent whisky for this budget.
Kilkerran 12 and Springbank 10 have both been mentioned already. Great whiskies, but difficu ... |

Maybe go to your local pub and try 4 or 5 pints of your usual tipple. Then order a few shorts of different whiskies. If you don't like it then you're probably never going to like it. |
