Cutty Sark is a regular due to its versatility and VFM - ¥1,100 here in Japan, about $8 a bottle. Makes a great Highball with some sparkling water with lemon. Drunk neat there's a nice cereal note, a hint of vanilla and a touch of smoke. My American friend (of a certain age) swears by his Cutty & soda, and it's easy to see why. Hits the spot every time.
