Best single-malt Scotch...


I have to give credit to Redwiki for the inspiration to start this thread. Yes, certain malts better compliment certain music or certain moods. Of the fifteen or so different malts in my cabinet right now, my favorites are: Aberlour "Antique", similar to the popular Macallan, but not as syrupy; a bit drier, light hearted and less complicated; great with Mozart and Brubeck. Mortlach "Limited Edition" cask strength. Powerful, smoky, mysterious. Great with Bartok, Berg and late 'Trane. Loch Morar 25 yr old. Incredibly complex and intense, with a hint of honey and flowers. Great with Poulenc, Stravinsky and Bill Evans. Any other single-malt aficionados out there?

Hey guys,

I found a site www.sendvodka.com that has the "Lagavulin 16" that everyone is raving about. I don't know how the price compares to other places. Let me know. I'm eager to get a bottle to try it out. Oh yeah, my favs at the moment is Macallan 18 and 25.
Do any of you live in Central Ohio? If so do you know of a store with a good single malt selection? I'm in Columbus and it seems hard to find anything other than the usual suspects (Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, Glenmorangie, Macallan & Bowmore).
