favourite whisk(e)y (and cigs)

i'd really love to be earning enough to afford private distillers' bottling or be a member of some distillery's private club, but alas. so the list is just easy-to-find and mostly affordable market bottles. i'm also primarily into scotch single malts
1Whiskey Ritual
Blow with the Devil


Bunnahabhain 12 - the fist whisky i truly enjoyed. not tolerated or liked in comparison to others, but truly honestly deeply loved the taste of. to this day one of my absolute favourites
2Whiskeytown
Theme For A Trucker


Bulleit Rye - their bourbon is a classic, but i always have a private inner joyous cheer, when i see a bar serving this, and i always take it
3Blood Or Whiskey
No Time To Explain


Glenfiddich 12 - it really is probably the best of all the affordable, accessible, mass-market scotches. and there's a good reason for that
4Whiskey Rebels
Create or Die


Lagavulin 16 - i rarely get the chance to drink this, there is only a few places in my town i know that serve Lagavulin at all
5Whiskey Blanket
No Object


Laphroaig Quarter Cask - so Laphroaig itself is not an easy drink to get into, but Quarter Cask is probably the best of the affordable sharp and biting single malts i can recommend a beginner
6Whiskey Myers
Firewater


Yellow Spot 12 - difficult to obtain here, but worth every penny
7Whiskey Tax
Whiskey Tax


Talisker 10 - i dunno, great stuff
8Vermilion Whiskey
Spirit Of Tradition


Highland Park 2007 Cask Strength - so there was this place i used to go to regularly in my town that had this for a while and i absolutely loved it and after they ran out i only got to taste this some time later once in another establishment and now i am really saving up money to be able to get it online for myself, cause it is worth it
9Whiskey and the Wolves
Fenrir


Connemara 12 - if you thought regular Connemara could not get any crazier
10Whiskey Moon Face
Panspermia


Method and Madness Single Pot Still - another difficult to come by regular-production bottle. i think i prefer it to their single grain due to it being overall fruitier taste (seems to me), and i always love a fruity whiskey.
11Lace and Whiskey
The Lace and Whiskey Collection


Bruichladdich Islay Barley 2011 - i have not tried the other Laddie editions and i am also very fond of the classic Laddie, but this is pure magic
12Whiskey Ritual
Black'n'Roll


Nikka From the Barrel - razor sharp, the perfect Japanese single malt. I wish i had more experience with the Japanese whiskey
13Whiskerman
Whiskerman


Springbank 18 - there is not really such a thing as best Springbank, but this one stood out to me personally the most. i love the richness and the long fruity finish that seems to go on forever
14Whisker Twister
NineSevenTwo


Woodford Reserve Double Oaked - i don't have as much access to American whiskey (or bourbon), but i regularly find myself with Woodford's classic in my glass
15The Dancing Cigarettes
The Dancing Cigarettes


Favourite cigarettes, while we're all here:
Gauloises Red and Blue
Marlboro Red
Chesterfield Red
Sparta Red
Davidoff Mint, but menthol cigarettes are now apparently banned in the EU, for fuck's sake
