I'm loving the Red Breast 12. an amazing Pure Pot Still irish whiskey, and very highly recommended.

Single Malts, I'm gonna admit to not trying anything over 18yrs, but for me today, the Balvanie Doublewood is still my favorite.

Redbreast is one of my favourite Irish whiskeys. Light, sweet, subtle, and smooth. An absolutely amazing whisky for the price.

As far as scotches go...

Lagavulin distiller's edition (the 1988 is my favourite)
Caol Ila 18 year (do you see a trend here?)
The MacAllan 18 (wonderful value in a top-shelf whisky)
Balvennie 21 year portwood

and three often overlooked scotches:

Talisker 10 year is charming knuckle-dragger of an Islay malt
Dalwhinnie is amazingly gentle, smooth, and subtle
The Bheag is a blend (shocking) that is unchillfiltered and absolutely first-rate!

I'd like Ardbeg if the price was more attractive. Mostly Caol Ila and Bowmore although I do like Laphraoig Quarter Cask and various Glenfidiches. Bunnahabhain is pretty good too.

I split a bottle of Caol Ila 30 yr w a friend of mine last Memorial Day. His bro was on leave. I brought the ERdM Panatella Largas from the 80s, he brought the scotch. That was a grrrreat day.
