I'm getting ready to try another 10 drams, and having a grand time at this.

I am buying the samples from Master of Malt, who ships them very inexpensively via fedex next day air from the UK. Each sample is one dram (about an ounce) and costs about 1/12 what a full bottle would cost.

Here's the ones I've tried so far...
  • Balveine 30 yo Speyside This was very smooth and drinkable to me
  • Brora 37 yo Highland This was very smoky
  • Bunnahabhain 25 yo Islay This was very smooth, one of my favorites
  • Glenfarclas 25 yo Speyside This was very good, with just the right amount of sherry taste
  • Glenfarclas 40 yo Speyside This was very strong, a bit too sherried for my pallatte
  • Glenglassaugh 45 YO Speyside Very smooth
  • Glenkinchie 24 YO Lowland This was very smooth, but since it's a cask strength bottling, it was very strong
  • Isle of Jura 30 yo Island This is a favorite. Bold, robust, but also very drinkable.
  • Springbank 22 Campbeltown Very smooth
  • The singleton of Glengullan 38 yo This is a cask strength bottling and very strong
You may say you are not a connoisseur but I wish I had your wallet as you listed soe of the best ones
