I think you fail to understand the whole subjective thing. Yes, done the whole Scotland/Ireland drink the best in the area when visiting and you're right, if you like scotch whiskey. Seeing as how it comes from Scotland and all. I happen to like bourbon whisky, which isn't made in the same way. I actually particularly dislike scotch.
Try some Finnish whiskey[1] and then try some Lagavulin 16 years old, and see if you still stand by that claim.

[1] Choose the best Finnish whiskey in existence, for a fairer comparison. It will still suck ass compared to Lagavulin.
