Where are my scotch nerds at?

I know audio hobbies tend to attract whisky fans, so let's talk scotch and other whisky. 

I personally tend to gravitate towards Islay scotches, but love speysides and cambelton too.

My favorites lately have been:
Bunnahabhain 18 -- Out highlands a highland
Bruichladdich Peat -- Subtle at first, not as peaty as other islays, but the peat flavor taste is so good
Ardbeg Corryvreckan -- Delicious peat
Dalmore Gran Reserva -- A reliably smooth, almost boringly so, highland. 

And for some Bourbon, Pappy Van Winkle 10 year is hard to find, but out of this world good.

What are you guys drinking? :)p5

My dad drank all of it.  >:(

Irish whiskey is actually preferred to scotch.

Most Irish whiskey are triple Distilled. And is easier to be had neat without even water.

Favs are bushmills 10. And tullamore 10

Aardbeg is the proffered scotch brand if we are strictly discussin scotch

A friend kept recommended this triple malt, and I kept blowing him off.  Until he dropped a few bottles off at the house... this stuff is surprisingly good.

Whisky?!  Fuck that.  Ireland doesn't have the Isle of Skyye w/ its peaty bogs and crashing surf bathing those Cognac casks.  You keep that sissy river dancing dram.  *:p  Scotch should always be neat, with the exception of one lunatic member here..... :(  If you have ballz, drink Scotch, if you don't there's always whisky.  :)) ;)

Honestly, if distillation is your main concern, Scotch is not for you try Vodka.  That's missing the point entirely.  It's about tasting the country/region and history of the people IMO. 

On a scary note, barely worth mentioning:
