normally I just drink Knob, Jameson Black, or Makers 35 nothing crazy just a basic 28-35 dollar bottle
However my sister is getting married in 2 months...yeah I know I am shocked too
recently had a bottle of Balvenie 15 Year and would like to share something nice during the reception with my brother and dad.

My current top shelf has a bottle of GTS, a Johnny blue, a macallan rare cask, a 25 yr rhetoric, and a bottle of Jameson select I bottle myself in Dublin. These only get pulled down for a very special occasion

Go to a liquor store with a whisk(e)y tasting table. A $30 bottle can taste better than a $100 bottle depending on your preference. For instance, I do not like a rye-heavy whisky, so I would rather drink a $30 bottle of most bourbons over a $200 bottle of rye-heavy whisk(e)y.
As far a specific recommendation:
Hibiki 17 Year Old (Japanese Whisky) ~$200

Lagavulin is my go to.
When I'm feeling cheap, I get some Té Bheag.

Bourbon: Four Roses single barrel
Scotch: can't go wrong with The Macallan (any of them), but if you like it rich and smokey and you're feeling a bit spendy, I recommend Lagavulin 16. That's what I keep on hand to mark special occasions.
