The Tamndhu 15yo is an excellent whisky that rivals the GlenDronach 15yo. A tad on the expensive side, this is nonetheless one of your better options in this category.

I don't get The Singleton. It's like Diageo was thinking: "We're the biggest producer of Scotch whisky, yet there's no way we're ever going to beat Glenfiddich or Glenlivet in terms of sales. Let's combine three distilleries into one brand and hope for the best — maybe that'll get us the number one Scottish malt whisky spot."
