Add Peat Monster to the list. Its really not that peaty, but its well blended and very nice all around.
You HAVE to try the corryvreckan. I've never had anything like that. A roller coaster in a bottle! My bottle of Uigeadail tastes like thinner and weaker corryvreckan with a bitter note. Considering all the hype, I'm a bit disappointed in Oogy. Corry is the only one I would describe as chewy. Almost like a creamy coffee. I get a taste of chocolate, but without the sweetness. The burn is translated as a pepper burn like from capsaicin instead of alcohol. Then its a resin taste. About like if the barrels were coated in smoke resin. And the smoke is from something that isn't wood and doesn't taste like it would have been peat either. Lots of interesting things I can't put words to.
