After all the suggestions you gave me I couldn't make up my mind on what to buy, therefore I opted to buy a few drams from Master of Malt.

Aberlour 10
Glen Grant 16 - 1995 Rare Auld (Duncan Taylor)
Glencadam 10
Highland Park 13 - Single Cask (Master of Malts)
Highland 18
Mortlach 22 - 1989 Rare Auld (Duncan Taylor)
Springbank 15

What order do I drink them in?
Thanks again.

I assume you wont be trying them all in one sitting but if you are start with the lighter whiskies which i would say are the Glen Grant and Glencadam. It would be interesting to try the Highland Parks together and i would try the Aberlour and Mortlach together. Whatever order you take them in rememeber to rinse your palate between drams.

These sample packs are a great way to find something you really like, i would agree with Forbes ordering, i would also try the Springbank alongside the Highland Park.

If you try the Highland Park 18 and the Highland Park 13 (Master of Malts) together i would be interested in what you think. Personally i was a bit disappointed with the Master of Malt HP 13

The Glencadam 10 was nice, nothing too exciting but a very nice dram.

The Glen Grant 16 was very nice, a lot more too it.
