Of course it is...one of a number of superb Islay malts... I love that style of whisky but it isn't to everyone's taste... I am travelling this weekend on business (back next Friday) so I will be perusing the duty free as we are fast running out of good stuff to drink... I think it's my style. I like the smokey stuff but this one doesn't taste as strong. They do vary and I tend to change depending on my mood...sometime I just love a Lagavulin but at other times then the less smokey ones are just right...I am very fond of the Islay malts though...I still have a little Lagavulin, Laphroiag and Ardbeg and just a splash left of Bruichladdich. So a serious top up is required...   |

So a serious top up is required... same here. islay malts are my favourite,usually always have a bottle of lagavulin,bowmore,laphroig,ardbeg,bruichladdich and bunnahabhain at home. lagavulin 16 is my go to whisky if i cant decide what to drink. the 18 year old bowmore is fantastic,though quite expensive here. |

Not tried the Bunnahabhain but definitely willing to give it a try...  I'm hoping I get a decent choice at a decent price but it is Oman Duty Free and I can't remember what they have... However, it is my 'duty'(!) to bring home what I can...  |

I’m too weak to have so many at the same time. Just finished my Laphroaig 10 and have some Bowmore 10 left, which I don’t like as much. Anyone familiar with the Laphroaig PX Case? Worth a try?
