Not this one, but I know Andrew and have been to several of KWM's tasting events. KWM has the best selection of single malts in Calgary but they are overpriced except for their sales, which could be very good sometimes (like the one going now).

If your a scotch guy would you love a bottle of your favourite scotch? or is there something similar to Oban 15 that would a great addition to a collection?

Oban is a balanced SM Scotch, so go for the middle of the chart. You said "collection", which is a bit confusing. Oban 15 is not a collectible Scotch. If you are looking for a serious single malt that IS a collectible, buy Master of Macallan Batch 3 for $175 at KWM. This is a special, limited edition series Scotch and it is of the similar balanced palate to Oban 15. Call them first, Nancy or Andrew will set a bottle aside for you.
