There’s a fair amount of difference in price between these. Lagavulin and Oban near the $100 price tag, Johnny Walker Black more near $35-40.

Lagavulin 16 is THE best Islay single malt.

I like JW Black.

Tried peaty Laphroaig once, tasted like paint stripper to me.

Have tried several of the “usual” singles, Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, others I’ve forgotten, OK.

Local Total Wine has some $4,000 - $5,000 scotches, don’t know if they ever sell any :)

I like “Jura,” a smooth whiskey.
Also, “The famous Grouse,” an inexpensive blend that includes “Maacallan,” in the blend.

Th Peaty whiskeys are a matter of taste. I have not been able to enjoy them.
Both of my Grandmothers were Scottish, Clan Cameron and Clan Davidson.
I enjoy having a wee dram in honor of their memory!
Cheers!

Had some Ben Nevis on a recent trip to Scotland. Mighty good, I thought.
