    Greetings - 


    New to the forum.  I've been enjoying single malt Scotch most of my adult life, and have acquired a taste for bourbon since moving to Virginia.


    Celebrating my 60th with some friends this weekend, and am looking to pick up a bottle or 3 to mark the occasion.  


    I've acquired the Glenmorangie 18, since I enjoy the 10.  I'd welcome additional recommendations.  Absent multiple stellar exhortations about a life-altering experience, I'd prefer to stay below $150/bottle.  Negotiable.  Less is more.


    Thoughts on Glenfarclas?


    My known preferences are below.  Not a fan of overly peaty.  I do like the Oban 14.


    Like:

    Glenmorangie 10
    Aberlour 12 Double Cask
    Balvenie 12 DoubleWood
    Macallan 12

    Oban 14

    Highland Park 12 is *okay*, but I'd not buy it again.  On the fence about the Bowmore 15.

    Not a fan of Laphroaig 10.  At all.


    Your thoughts invited and much appreciated.
