My favorite scotch is Oban. You can get the "standard" 14 year edition for around $60.

There is a rarer 18 year edition that sells for somewhere from $100 to $150.

Oban is truly special. It is a single malt so it has a more complex flavor than a blended scotch like Johnnie Walker. It's milder than some of the smokier single malts and tastes more refined like a Glenlivet or Glenfiddich, but to my taste buds is miles above in overall flavor.

Look at reviews around the web and you will see that Oban is highly regarded by all scotch lovers.

Thanks for the info on Oban.

One thing my friend did NOT like was Johnnie Walker Double Black. If I remember correctly it was the extra peaty/smoky flavor that turned him off.

CAN’t go wrong with Oban. Really smooth, really tasty.
