A Connoisseur's Single Malt Scotch

The search for the best single malt Scotch whiskey is an obsession and passion for many. Watch out for that crowd of old guys, they will take you down. But, some younger people too are into the delights and intricacies of single malt. The problem is, how much money do you have to spend to find a scotch you really love? if you don't have a bar with a focus on Scotch, then you are at the mercy of what other people tell you, most don't know anything about Scotch, or the random pick of a bottle off the store shelf. Then come in the reviews. You can find malt reviews online an in books that help tremendously for establishing a good starting point. From here you must find what your palate likes. You might not like what is considered a 95 point Scotch. You may prefer one that is an 83 pointer instead. 

In this case, I do have one that is a highly rated and incredible single malt Scotch whiskey. It runs the gamete from smokey and punchy, to sweet and complex. Here we have Lagavulin Distillers Edition, Pedro Ximenez. This is a fantastic Scotch and a wonderful variation from the impressively peaty and powerful Lagavulin 16. Get both if you can afford it. Both are highly rated and will keep you coming back for more. Amity Wines.com can get the Distilller's Edition for you with a great price. Otherwise, see if your local fine liquor store can special order you a bottle. Make sure to drink it out of a Scotch glass or brandy snifter.
