when I got into whiskey-tasting, I noticed that really cheap stuff (<20€ per bottle) always tastes bad, and average priced whisky (~50€) usually tastes good, and even comes with a lot of variety. If you go beyond that (>200€), you'll get the stuff beyond the taste, like exclusivity.
But here is the thing: whisky drinkers don't hide, that higher price tags don't come from the taste. E.g. Stuff like single casks are explicitly about being exclusive.
For me the fun with whisky tasting comes from exploring the taste, and trying to put it into words. It's less about "tasting good" and more about "trying out a new sense".
