Caol Ila, never had any that didn't taste very well or extremely well 
The only problem is that the bottles are so damned small

Glengoyne 17 is rather good. Personal preference though. Nice highland singlemalt whisky...

Dalwhinnie is light and heathery, good to add a bit of balance if the rest of the collection is heavier.
Lagavulin is very peaty and is definitely an acquired taste. When I first tasted it I thought it was awful although now am rather partial to it.
Cragganmore is much more smokey, a favourite of mine. Glenkinchie is similar but less smokey, also very pleasing.
My personal favourite at the moment is a 35-year-old single cask Glenmorangie I bought although I doubt customers at a coffee bar would expect to find anything quite like it. Still, it could represent an interesting secondary business. Just don't put it in a coffee or the whisky lovers will disown you

oh lord definetly! what a waste it would be to mix a good single malt whisky with... whatever one would want to mix whisky with these days. A blended whisky suites that purpose better.

Whiskey with an "e" is either Irish or American.
American whisk(e)y? Never seen anything except for bourbon ... Is there anything good on the market?

I stumbled into Berry Brothers (St James' Place, London) and quite aside from the vintage wine, port, rum etc etc .. the choice of high grade whisky is just mind blowing .. like being a child in a sweet shop!

BB& Rudd have got a pretty good website too. Not really the kind of shop you just "wander into," but definitely worth a visit for those who favour their wine as much as their coffee and they used to know their stuff (probably still do) but then I'm maybe a little biased. Haven't actually been in the shop for ages though.
