In this attempt I was looking to get breadth into my collection of five bottles. Each region is represented here apart from Campbeltown which just pushed the £100 a little too far. Even with literal use of small size bottles this collection still manages to include 2.5 litres of alcohol for the total of £95 which breaks down to 95p per 25ml measure. This is a little more expensive than my first attempt but that was pretty insane.

This collection includes a lot of interesting bottles from the mellow and creamy Auchentoshan to the smokey toffee-ish Ileach there is something to use as a jumping off point to other whiskies in that category.
