What's your favorite Rest-of-the-world whisky?

Just thought it could be interesting to know what you gents drink of whisky brands outside the the main areas - Scotland, Ireland, US, Canada and Japan.

I really enjoy Amrut (India) and I also had some great cask samples from St. George's (England) and Stauning (Denmark).
I've also tried Mackmyra (Sweden) but sadly it dosen't fit to my taste buds.

I have been seeing Amrut everywhere since moving to Calgary - I've been curious about it. What's it like?

The rest of the world makes whiskey? I remember having Japanese Suntory "scotch" many years ago. It was more like Bourbon - not to my liking back then.

Cheers!

I just reviewed a whiskey review for Stranahans Colorado Whiskey at Ralfy.com. He says that this whiskey is proof that you don't need to be from Scotland to make scotch whiskey. I've got to try this stuff because it's just barley, water and yeast, the same as single malt scotch. I think this meets the criteria of the OP's category.
