I'm Mark, and I'm very fond of peated drams. My go to whiskies are usually those from the Island region or the Islay region. One of my very favourites is Ardbed.
Anybody have any Islay favourites or gems they would like to share?
Almost any of the Islay whiskies are good, but I especially like Bruichladdie's Octomore range ... but only when someone else is buying as it's very expensive. My own personal favourite is actually from Skye - Talisker - which varies from reasonably priced to around £250 for a 25 YO; not that I've ever tasted that!
Thanks for this @mabrown13.90 For me it's the Lagavulin 16... a really nice drop.
Lagavulin 16 was sent from the gods! The smell and taste just transports me to a wintery campfire setting

We actually gave away a Talisker 25 last year. Sorry that you didn't win it :(
