I like the Rye especially

Visiting Japan, had the chance to drink Hibiki 21 year old single. It was amazing, and $86 in Tokyo (9000 Yen) for 2 fingers and some ice. I only got it because I'm on vacation and Mrs. Polack and I have been saving up.

So yeah, if I hit the lottery, I'd pick up a case at 300+ per bottle, until then, Knob Creek, Bulleit, and Glenmorangie are my ceiling.
