Ardbeg, pushing the definition of Scotch. A bit of a jumble, and very strong. Maybe I'm just not ready.

My cold is persisting, so it is going to have to answer to another shot of old peaty. The dark cove is a good quality Ardbeg, but a little boring. The 10 still excites me every time, even after 2 decades of drinking it. Sadly, it does not make as good of a toddy as the Ardbog. I trust the medicinal value is not diminished!

Peaty with a slight finish of sherry and coffee. Delicious!
