One of my favorites is Lagavulin TM. I'm also a fan of Balvenie (http://www.balvenie.com/)

Thank you gentleman, for the tips! Always on the lookout for a great liquor to expand my palate.

I hope you all had a wonderful 4th!

One other thing, again hating to sound like a novice, but is Scotch a good mixing liquor, or is it preferable to have it neat or on the rocks?
