I love Dalwhinnie, although my mate says it's for women and vicars.

The doublewood version is really good.

Never tried Dalwhinnie but I do like the Balvenie Double wood. Very smooth / mellow. Perhaps because it does't fully take up the flavor of either wood???

Actually though, thanks to this thread (and perhaps you Cue), I tried Laphroaig <sp>. Very nice for the price. Until I'd tried it, I didn't care for smokey / petey flavored scotch, however it's helped me change my tune.

As far as the Mac Fine Oak series - they used to be some of my favorites. Very light / smooth / easy to drink. However, recently I've really been into heavier offerings (like the Mac Cask Str). Maybe it's a seasonal thing like Keysers depression.
