Based on recent discussion here, this article from a recent issue of
the FT might be of interest. This is a bit narrower group of products
(Speyside) from which the author is choosing, but it should give you
some ideas. I've enjoyed several- the Glenlivet and Glenfiddich, and
I actually have the Aberlour and Macallan 18 in my cabinet at home at
the moment (and a Macallan 12). The Aberlour is a relative bargain.
All are good in their own way to my ignorant palate.
