… I’d disagree with his observations about the Ardbeg, but my whisky journey has borne out everything else he wrote there.

Kilchoman Winter Release 2010 is where it’s at for smoky goodness at the moment people.

tried it at the port charlotte hotel and bought a bottle the next day, i’ve been following the development of kilchoman after visiting the distillery shortly after it opened and have a few of their early releases as collector’s items

good things are to come i reckon.

octomore are some peaty beasts feels almost synthetic tho its that strong nice tho just different

Has anyone tried any of the Bladnoch whiskys?

Our lasses parents live near it and I passed the distillery not long ago.

LOL – liked that.

Its an OK dram. Probably at the opposite end of the spectrum from Ardbeg though. Used to be one of the key malts in Bells.
