The dram however is very much an acquired taste. I found it very challenging. For me, the multiple wood finishes do it no favours.
From the list my pick would be the Benriach PX.
Happy shopping! |

| Nobody recommended the Bunnahabhain 18 yet? It's a stunning dram, the pick of the bunch in my opinion. I'd go for that one and the Benriach 15 Sherry above all. |

Bunna 18 is a great whisky but that price is only average rather than a bargain IMHO. |
