If he is a single malt drinker - this could be a minefield - best to figure
out what kind of malt he prefers. If you can't do that, then you can try to
give him a good impress-the-crowd standby like a reserve 25 or 30y Macallan
which would probably be received well by any single malt drinker even if
they didn't prefer the Speyside taste.
