Things you should try:
1. RedBreast 12yr (the 15yr is more carmel less fruit and rather boring by comparison) - Irish
2. Woodford Double Oak - Bourbon
3. Elijah Craig Rye (great for Old Fashioned) - American whiskey
4. Suntory Toki - Japanese whiskey
5. McClelland's Lowland (a regular in my rotation) - Scotch
6. Tomatin Highland's 12yr (Bourbon + sherry casks) - Scotch
7. Glen Moray 12yr - Scotch

Mixed drink:
Add 1/3 cup Ice
Add 1/2 cup Crown Royal Black
Fill rest with Premium Ginger Ale
Stir
Consume and repeat

I can think of many ways to blow $200 that are much worse than that... that's money well spent!
