The thread that will never die :)
If you want a rare treat, find your way to Edinburgh and go to The Scotch Whiskey Society for lunch. You can sample (for a price) as many of their specially bottled single malts by the glass...and the price is very reasonable. You can also buy a bottle of whatever you like. A wonderful place.
My long time preference has been Lagavulan 16YO. The price locally is now $84 but I found an out of state source where I can get it for $50-$55.
One of my least favorite is Lach Dhu but now I wish I hadn't opened the bottle since it's gotten so expensive as a collectors item. I still have 3/4 of a bottle for company that wants to try it.
