What are some examples of a whiskey that would have been considered “nice” in the 1960s? Something that would mark the owner as a bit of a connoisseur, something that would cost maybe a few hundred bucks per bottle in 2022 dollars.

I don’t really know anything about whiskey.

Chivas Regal. Italians used to smuggle it across the Iron Curtain

Is there a particular variety of Chivas Regal you think would fit my description here?

The perfect example, that one used to have mythical status even though it's just supermarket whiskey (but supermarkets where a novelty back then).

Honestly, the 12 year old is fine, but maybe step it up a notch to the 15, or 18.
