I really like Laphroaig 10 yrs old: very nice peaty flavour. Recently I bought McClelland's Single Malt Islay. I think it is really good VFM, I like its kinda unpolished character.

I think I prefer quarter cask to 10 year old.
That said, I tried a Caol Ila 12 year old, the other day. Lovely peat smoke and less of the medicine cabinet involved in something like a laphroaig or an Ardbeg. Rather, more akin to something from lagavulin perhaps.Leatherstockiings likes this.

i've gotten the 'murican bug it seems! since a month or two i've been growing more and more fond of the bourbons. my current "drop" is an elijah craigh 12y which is a superb drinking whiskey.. the next one is most likely gonna be a four roses single barrel. keep y'all posted

Well, My bottle of Glenmorangie was finished off and I am halfway through the Highland Park 12. I am tempted to go with a blended Scotch next or entry level single malts from Aberlour, Ardmore, Balvenie, Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, or Laphroaig. Thoughts?

I'm a big fan of the Aberlour 12yo which is pretty reasonably priced (here at least). Of the others you mentioned I personally like Laphroaig. The big question with it (as with most Islay malts) is whether you like peaty whiskies. If you don't, you probably won't enjoy it too much. But if you do? Mmmmm...

It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

I don't know how I feel about peaty whiskys yet. It might be safer to stick to the less smoky single malts for now. Thanks for the advice Cangooner.
