Glenlivet 12 yr. is pretty good, and reasonably priced. (for a single malt)

I like the 16 yr Nadurra as well.

Thanks for all of the very detailed responses so far!! I really appreciate the explanations of why you like the ones you are recommending.

Edit: if you aren't familiar, BevMo! is www.bevmo.com

Don't forget to see if Costco has what you want. I know they are quite limited but they do sell more of the high end stuff at Christmas.

The Glenfiddich Oak Cask Finished 25 year old is fine (but about 3x your budget. Worth every penny but buy it for yourself

)

Seconds on the Glenlivet 12 yr. You can sometimes find it at Costco at a decent price. I'm interested in trying some of the others mentioned here, budget permitting.
