Just tasti9ng this for the 1st time today the 1st thing that came to my mind was dirty bandaid, lol, but yeah, this is my 1st experience with a heavy peated whiskey...
-
I feel the same way about the ardbeg, while still a very good scotch I would prefer a laphroaig which is cheaper anyways.
-
Love your reviews very much. I also favour the Laphroig, but Ardbeg is almost just as good and very good whisky indeed. A great dram.
-
I have Laphroaig quarter cast and this one. Ardbeg is my fav along with a block of dark chocolate with roasted almonds
-
Islay Scotches just remind me of sitting around a wood stove during a snowstorm...
Amazing.

@chrish12345 agree, 'cause i dont put ice in my single malt and i enjoy it more in cold weather but try this: when you're grilling a nice beef steak or ribs on an open fire on a hot summer day, drink some good "blended" (yes blended) scotch on the rocks (yes, call me crazy) before the meat is ready then uncork a nice bottle of left bank bordeaux and have a glass and you'll see!..perfect sunday afternoon..ahhh!

@chrish12345 i've tried the Jura 10 and 16 yrs but never the superstition special edition but i've heard it's a big boy big guns!, but the 10 and 16 definetly not very peaty, a little flowery or i must say honey finish like bowmore 12, not my thing thou, jura island is very near islay but very different character and i like they keep their own personalities (like england, ireland and scotland being so close and yet so different) long live scotch!

@javierhejtmanek I tried the Jura Superstition. Even they say it is 'smoky' on the label it comes nowhere near the peat/smoke you get from Islay whiskys. It is dominated by a rich woody sweetness with walnuts and fresh citrus.

Ardbeg is like drinking charcoal mud. Nice shit.

I notice you say its a hot day, for me the whole smoke/peat thing deifnitely goes more with wet/cold weather.

Hi Tom,
try the new Ten. This is more medicine, more peat, very powerful. A touch of lemon, touch of ananas, all in all very balanced between smoke and fruity sweetness. yummie :-)
Greetings from germany!
