I endorse ST's view entirely.
Few trainers have the vintage presence of a Tiger Moth. Handling-wise, it has one foot firmly in the WW1 camp, with its very noticeable adverse yaw requiring some skilled footwork to keep it in balance all the time. This will be very useful if your tailwheel flying is going in that direction.
If it's the 'Spitfiire Experience' in terms of delightfully balanced and co-ordinated handling you're after, I can't think of anything better than a Chipmunk, (other than a Spitfire!) to give it to you!
Don't discount the 'humble' Cub though. Although it may not have the 'Ramp Presence' of the other two, it has an iconic character all it's own, and is a great lead-in to a host of it's high wing utillity immitators, often themselves refered to as 'Cubs' by the uneducated.
Whatever you finally choose in which to 'learn what your feet are for', welcome to a wondereful new world of aviation!
