Ardbeg An Oa if you can find it, the regular Ardbeg 10 is good too. High West Rendezvous Rye is lovely. For mixing Rittenhouse 100 Rye is inexpensive but yummy.

Worth noting that High West Rye is MGP product. You can pay 1/3rd as much to get roughly the same spirit by buying Redemption or George Dickel.

MGP makes a lot of different whiskeys. But that does not mean that all of them are the same.

I do feel that many of the brands are priced by pure marketing (ie whistle pig). But some are quite good.

FYI some of the high West varieties are MGP product mixed with High West own distilled product.
