I doubt if you'd be able to get hold of this particular one anywhere other than in Glasgow (but don't hold me to that, I've just not seen it in the shops down here).
Do you know what sort of scotch your friend actually likes - they vary greatly in taste, smoothness and aroma - and it would be nice to get one s/he would probably like !
If you can't decide, then I would recommend one of these fine single malts (ok they are available but not cheaply):-
Highland Park
The Balvenie
Talisker
Jura
Tobermory
Oban
Dalwhinnie
Glenmorangie

I doubt it does danglee ... unless AngloScot really wants to spend upwards of �37 on a present....
AS - you can buy all of those lovely single malts - not as old mind - from about �25 per bottle (sometimes even cheaper). I am currently imbibing a rather nice ten year old Glenmorangie which I got in my local supermarket for �18.99.....

I go 100% with Coccinelle - Black Bottle is far better than anything advertised on telly or rugby shirts. The best standard blend by a mile. J & B comes second.
But for a very ultra-special single malt, there is only one. Springbank! Distilled in Campbeltown and aged a minimum of 10 years (15 is better) this is the true nectar of the Gods.
