What if there was one you liked for £5, but you'd heard you could pay £10 and get something even better. I figure as an overpaid contractor I should be upping my tastes; even permies can afford £20/bottle

It doesn't always work that way. Back in the late 90's at the restaurant we contractors used to frequent, Moet Chandon was £25 a bottle. Dom Perignon was £75 a bottle. Now, the Dom was definitely better than the Moet, but I'm not convinced it was 3 times better.
It did make the Moet taste like vinegar, but if you didn't have the two to compare, you wouldn't know.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Glenkinchie is nice, had a couple of bottles of it over xmas, pretty smooth and something that can be drunk neat although I always add some water.Originally posted by ratewhore View PostComment

Sometimes its better not to know, I don't think I've tasted a red wine that cost more than £8 ...and I want to keep it that way.
Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

It's under your price range, but as Ratewhore as already mentioned, Dalwhinnie is really quite good.
In terms of Whiskey, Bushmills Malt 10 YO is very smooth.I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.Comment
