Which of these costs you less a drink? Glengoyne 15 runs $2 more a bottle than Aberlour 14, yet at 43% against 40% it's the cheaper drink: $6.82 a standard drink against $7.24. Both sit over a pint at the pub, about $6.28 a drink. Tamdhu 12 ($4.13), Aberlour 12 Double Cask ($4.75) and Edradour 10 ($5.07) come in under it. Pour the Glengoyne of a quiet evening: vanilla, ginger, toffee and old leather, spicy through to a cocoa finish. $162 this week, $6.82 a standard drink.
