Default Medicinal Taste

Hello.
I recently bought a bottle of Laphroaig 10yr. I like its taste, specially the peat, but there's a flavour in it that reminds me of the desinfectants used at the dentist, which doesn't really please me. I asume that's the so called medicinal taste I read about in some whisky reviews. Among the highly peated whiskys (Laphroaig, Lagavulin and Ardbeg I assume) is there one not having that medicinal taste? According to flavour maps Lagavulin should be the one, but I remember reading someone saying it did have this medicinal taste. Sooner or later I will taste them all I asume, but for now I would rather leave the tastes I dislike to a side.
Thanks in advance
