My wife bought me this for Christmas about 4 years ago.
It comes out very very rarely for special occasions. She never did tell me what it cost, but I get the impression it was well into 3 figures. Trust me, it's worth every penny, just amazing
For a more resonable, but still not cheap I like Lagavulin, incredibly smokey but still very smooth.
I'm not overly keen on Glenfiddich, I find it too harsh, I much prefer Glenlivet, much smoother.
For regular stuff I buy famouse grouse
