"Life's too short to cheap out on guns & whisky."

This is my personal ranking of the single malt whiskies that I've had the pleasure of sipping behind my bar. Am I qualified in anything other than having drinken too much whisky? No. Are you going to agree with this ranking? Likely not. All I know is that the top ones are good and the bottom ones are still worth trying. 

*Disclaimer: The vast number of terrible whiskies I've tried did not make this list.
