The real trouble with me (other than overindulge) is that Total Wine is 30 minutes away in Kennesaw.

I dunno, the Lagavulin Distiller's Edition is a proven favorite at half the price. I believe in your guidebook that it was "Beethoven in a bottle". Perhaps my favorite of your tasting notes and I couldn't agree more.
If you like good Scotch, you owe it to yourself to get a copy of Doug's guides.

There are some very reasonably priced malts available at Total Wines, nonetheless. Ardbeg 10 Year Old at US$49.99, Laphroaig 10 Year Old Cask Strength at US$77.99, Edradour 10 Year Old at US$55.99 and Clynelish 14 Year Old at US$65.99 are sure bets.

Edradour is a great value... even there older iterations are well priced. And there are the blends of Douglas Laing which offer some bang for the buck IMO
