I've actually never tried Ardbeg. I love how peaty Laphroaig is. Ardbeg is also an Islay, so I'd assume it's pretty close to Laphroaig. Bowmore is really the only Islay I've tried that I just flat out don't like.

it's good but I'm definitely a laphroaig fan due to the peat.. ever had aberlour a'bunadh? my friend stays on my case about trying it... and agree on the bowmore..

Never tried Aberlour, but if I'm not mistaken it's a Speyside. If it's at all similar to The Macallan and The Glenlivet, I'm sure it's delicious.

correct.. very easy to drink being a speyside.. color me strange but I love the ten year.. it's a bit immature but that's part of what I like about it.. a good young speyside is a treat to me, gives it a bit more character

It's such a treat.

I did happy hour today with a group of friends. Hopped around to a few spots in Bethesda. I'm pretty much in the bag right now. Rock and roll.

very nice

I'd have to say, as per my recollection, laphroaig is a little easier going than ardbeg

both very enjoyable but the laphroaig disappears a bit quicker
