Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but my wife and I love Caol Ila 12 year. It's seriously peaty (tastes to me like distilled cigars) and that's the attraction. We tend to sip it neat because it's a bit pricey to go diluting but it's pretty awesome with pretty much any other classic combo (Drambuie anyone?).

I haven't tried the 18 year and 25 year versions, but I'm perfectly happy with the 12 year. For a more affordable and middle-road whiskey, we also really like Glen Livet 12 year. Personally I think it's underrated but maybe that's because it's a bit too easy-going?
