Cons
- Sorry, but you need to move that Proper Twelve away from the Balvenie.
- You can't tell me, a dram of Balvenie or Laphroaig is worth 4,000/4,500.... Wtf. Who the fuck thinks he can taste that insane prize difference to a normal dram, making it nearly 1000 times more expensive. That's ridiculous

Get the Balvenie! That’s an Asian travel exclusive and I’m sure will be awesome!
Balvenie is my preferred.
Balvenie is always a safe bank and rarely disappoints. Don’t know the edition here but the normal 12yo is great.
You might also like Balvenie, Glen Allachie, Bunnahabhain 12 (also all 3 non Highlands).
