This one....

 

Caffè Borghetti, Italian coffee liqueur.

 

Now that's a rare tipple

 

How do you like the Norlan glass?

How convenient! Your contribution to science will not be forgotten...

 

watched couple of online reviews, just ordered a set of two, expected delivery by end of Oct...more to folllow...

 

Actually it does what it advertises which is to send the aroma out. I just got it yesterday, no complains so far. I got some glencairn glasses too and I think each has their merit. I have yet to ice the Norlan and try

 

I'd been favouring Lagavulin 16 for the past 6 months or so, but just rediscovered this. So nice, but you better love peat....

 

Its great and with Laphroaig raising prices the Ardbeg 10 is at price parity, and a no brainer! Its a great dram! Check out Ardbeg Uigeadail, its a killer dram.

 

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll keep an eye out for the Uigeadail. You're spot on with the Ardbeg 10. No reason not to have it on your shelf if you love peat. Not sure how I let it get away from me the past while, but I'm glad it's back.

 

@Foo2rama and @AAAKK , I'll politely take a pass on the peat! Drive on gentlemen!

 

A colleague kindly brought this from Scotland today; and of course it will be consumed in the evening (partially)

 

@ELV web , I'd love to see that bottle in my local area...

 

Had a side by side session with three out of production Johnny Blacks

 

I'm a Lagavulin guy myself and haven't tried Ardbeg. How would you say they compare?

 

The Ardbeg 10 is basically liked sticking your head in a peat bog. But after you get past the peat, it's actually very refined and complex. I really like the Lagavulin 16 but it's a little less in your face. The Ardbeg 10 is like a shock to the your system, but in a good way if you love peat.

 

And if the Ardbeg 10 agrees with you, the Ardbeg Corryvreckan is The Nectar.

I do love peat. Just looked it up and it's a bit friendlier on the wallet than the lagavulin as well. I'll have to give it a shot. Thanks!

 

For today
