The Scotch List

Over at Men.Style they have a scotch list that you can vote on. I've never had the pleasure of trying it, but right now the Bruichladdich 15 year is the currently in the number one spot. Here's a little bit about it from the site:

"A charming distillery that seemed to have been lost forever after being shuttered in 1994, Bruichladdich (pronounced "Brook-laddy") was reopened by an independent consortium in 2001. It's been grabbing attention ever since, largely thanks to the efforts of legendary whisky-maker (and master marketer) Jim McEwan, who presides over the production of a line of lighter-bodied, sophisticated whiskies that are most notable for their clean, unpeated flavor profile. While there are other editions, our favorite is the 15, which benefits from, yes, 15 years in oak, plus 26 weeks in casks that previously held Château d'Yquem Sauternes wine."

You can see the whole list HERE, or just head strait to the Bruichladdich HERE. I can't vouch for any of the ratings, but if your looking around for something new,I think this would really be a good place to start.
