Well after searching the forum, surprisingly there are no existing threads on this topic. Theres at least one on beer and mentions of the application of medicinal quantities of a single malt during emergencies (e.g. coffee maker broken) but none from an appreciation POV so here it is: the Whisky snob thread.
I decided not to restrict it to Scotch whisky only. Some purists/uber-snobs might argue that if it isnt distilled in Scotland from a single malted grain, then it isnt whisky. But work with me on this...
I cant drink cheap (Scotch) whisky. Ive tried some good blended ones (e.g. JW Green Label) but havent tried the Blue Label yet and the King George V drop - hah, I wish.
Anyway, I saw something on the ABC about high quality whisky currently coming out of Tasmania. Lark distillery is one of the better known ones. I like the idea of good local product but wouldnt mind hearing from some who have tried some. Not cheap, it seems.

) I found the JW Green Label was probably a little over-priced as well.
