Le Fusil tells about a scarce brand of scotch, The Edradour. When I was in the retail liquor business, The Edradour supply was kept "off the shelf". It was a wee bit hard to get. Things have probably changed since then. I have been a consumer, rather than a huckster, for going on 24 years now. I have had it all, but I still don't enjoy an Islay. With the ridiculous prices of single malt in the last decade or two, I have learned to enjoy a higher end bourbon when in a spending mood, but Evan Williams Black when I want my money's worth without being cheated.

Some might find this odd, but some of the single malts and blends coming out of India are pretty good. They can't call it Scotch, since that is (legally?) reserved for what comes out of Scotland, but I've tried several and they were pretty good at a reasonable price.
I have become addicted to English hammered shotguns to the detriment of my wallet.

I suppose it must be there somewhere, but I've never heard of it at southern latitudes.

I try to keep it simple. Highland Park (12), Talisker (10), and my all-time favorite (one of Michael Jackson's, too), Cragganmore (12). I haven't bought any for a while, but the Cragganmore might be outside the price range.
