I read this article (section) and found it fascinating.

As luck would have it, our Rotary Club had a single malt Scotch tasting in a private wine celler. The tasting was limited to 20. Every person was given one shot from each bottle. 6 bottles were brought by the importer.

My favorite was Oban 14 (rich fruit).
Next was Dalwhinnie 15 (sweet floral).
Others:
Cragganmore 12 (complex depth).
Talisker 10 (spicy smoke).
Lagavulin 16 (deep smoke).
Caol Ila 18 (sweet smoke).

My two favorite blends are:
Johnny Walker Blue Label
Usquaebach (hard to find but delicious) pictured below
