Mods drink Whisky (not Whiskey), and of course it's straight single malt.

Depends - Whiskey, such as Irish Whiskey, and I will use this for the sake of the example, is tripled distilled, and can made from a single malt, single grain, blended or a pure pot still. It has a smooth taste, which has a slight spicy hint to it.
Whisky, such as Scotch Whisky has a smokey flavour to it, due to the method in which it is distilled, offering a unique taste.
The main difference is actually in the distilling methods used. I could go deeper into an proper explanation, but I'm in work at 6am for a training day....Cue muttering and grumbling as I travel tomorrow. (Oh, and btw, I worked in a major distillery for about two years...and before anyone asks, yes, I did get free stock.)

Well. That's your right...
Talisker is my malt of choice. Some other smoky/peaty distilled goodness also works. I won't say 'no' to Jameson either. But that's partly because I have so many friends in Ireland that I only rarely need to pay for mine. And the triple distillation is not a bad idea.
My bridge team just advanced to the next round in our knock-out tourney by the narrowest possible margin, so I will celebrate with some...
celticgeek:
Laphroaig.
Skewbrow:
Would definitely be on my list, too. Laphroaig and Lagavullin are battling for the 2nd place on mine.
Deadlywonky:
Favorite whisky of all time ... Ardberg Uigeadail. you can almost chew the smokiness (you almost have to). followed by the rather fruity Tomintoul 27
