Arrow Ardbeg - very smoky whisky

I'd say Ardbeg too - try Airigh Nam Beist. I noted it's very smoky, peppery with a spicy finish. Here are the actual tasting notes from Ardbeg: The colour of gold, its nose is smoky with fennel and pine nuts. Hints of ice cream and zesty limes are present. The taste starts peppery with smoky bacon and barbeque spices, an oily mouthfeel, then the sweetness of maple syrup and some vanilla. The finish is zesty and smoky. Also, try Ardbeg Uigeadail - I haven't had it (yet), but it has very good reviews. Let us know what you decide!
