Don't!!!! Balvenie Portwood! 21 yrs old.
I love that stuff but can rarely afford it.
I tend to stick to the 15 yr old single barrel Balvenie, when I can get it. 12 yr old Doublewood isn't bad either.
I once got hold of some 25 yr old single barrel. The pub had received it by accident and was selling it at 15 yr old prices. It was as smooth as chocolate with an aroma to match. Heaven. I was so disapointed when it was all gone.
Glenfiddich is like the cocca cola of malts, common as muck but still a fine drink nevertheless.
Jamesons do the only Irish single malt and very fine it is too.
I can't advise on the peat tasting malts as I don't like them. Laphoraig is like drinking medicine.
Glen morangie is highly respected but still not to my taste.
Remy Martin is another tipple of mine. Not whisky but Champagne Cognac. Nectar.
