Same ABV as the 10 year, which is surprising. It's very good, but do I notice an 8 year difference with the 10? Not so sure. It is a "thicker" and more coating mouth feel. A touch spicier, and a longer finish. I guess I talked myself into it. I think I am missing the floral properties, which is not big on my list, but maybe I will learn to appreciate that aspect more as my palate matures in time.

Stick with the bottle. It’s one of the greatest ones for me! Finds that sweet spot in between Laphroaig 18 and HP 18.
Not enough peat flavour left :-)
I had a similar experience when I first opened this bottle. I just didn't have enough experience under my belt to really appreciate it. Almost a year later I tried it again and it blew me away
