Any Whisky recommendations?

100% this!

There are some great whiskies on this list, a few of which I always have stocked in my cabinet (Laphroaig 10 and Hibiki Hramony especially). I don't recall ever trying a Taiwanese whiskey so Kavalan has jumped to the top of my try list!

If you're into the sherry profile almost anything from kavalan is pretty good. Even the base one is good and one of the most approachable, easy drinkers. I also think they're fantastic deals because ppl are doubtful of Taiwanese whiskey still so don't even try it.

Bourbon enthusiast here. Found a favorite at another tasting event. Penelope. The one in the blue bottle. (French Oak Staves). Other favorites, Woodford Double Oaked, and Rabbit Hole Dareringer.

I’m also a huge fan of Penelope architect! It comes at a great price point.

Another budget banger is redwood empire pipe dream.

As a whiskey nerd with hundreds of bottles, it depends on what flavor profile you like. Someone mentioned trying one from each category to see what you like first and I think that's a good suggestion.

Here are some starters:
Islay: Lagavulin 16 or Laphroaig 10
Highland: highland park 15+
Campbelltown: springBank 10
Speyside: macallan 15+
Japanese: hibiki harmony, yamazaki or hakashu 12
Irish: green spot
Bourbon: Buffalo Trace, Weller, eh Taylor
Rye: willett 4yr
American: jack Daniels single barrel, high west
Taiwanese: kavalan
Sherry bombs: aberlour abunadh, tamdhu

Most on this list are cheaper bottles but once you define your favorite styles you can move up to nicer bottles

Thanks @ dynastydog this is just what I needed

After having been reminded of this thread, I've just picked up a bottle of Kavalan to try. Always wanted to give it a whirl, nice one @dynastydoc

LAGAVULIN ( Peaty )

Hey, i've found a new nice single malt. If the common MC Allen is a litten too expensive for daydrinking (you know whati mean ) try out Glendronach 15 years. I tryed it at Emburys Bar FFM by recommandation (one of the top bars in germany). I think its absolutly underrated!

Me again, went to the interwhisky a few weeks ago and found something nice... the aednahoe is really outstanding!

For me, the best will always be the Black Label, Johnny Walker of course !
