Tastes

One of the very few bourbons I have tried. Reminds me of a 10 year scotch, so better than I expected. The alcohol taste is more apparent , but that's to be expected on a spirit without an age statement. Smooth , carmelly, notes of honey, I want to even say peatty but peatty sure I am mis-describing what I am tasting. Pleasant nose. I am not disappointed and impressed overall.

Smooth, solid scotch. Fantastic nose, give that a 4. Honey, reminds me if dahlwinnie or arbelour. You won't be disappointed.

I love Laphroaig for different reasons than ardbeg 10. Ardbeg is no holds barred a peat monster. Laphroaig 10 brings a more distilled, refined , well mannered peat monster. A must have for any peated whisky lover.

Ardbeg 10 is my go to for in your face peaty taste on the edge of balanced. Next steps up from ardbeg I could argue as gimmicky, but still great!. (uigeadail, corryvreckan, etc) A must for those who want string peat. A slightly more mellow peat is laphroig 10 year.
