Too true good sir! Should have said “was some good bourbon!” LolNot anymore! There ain't a Trace of that Buffalo!
Have you tried any other Ledaig expressions? If so, how are they? I've been thinking about trying one of their whiskies for the past few weeks. I just don't see a whole lot of thier bottles in my local stores. Do you think I'd be missing out if I just stuck to my Ardbegs, Lagavulins, Laphroaigs, and Taliskers, instead of trying a Ledaig?
I haven't tried any others, but I'm now eager to, especially the 10 and 18. I'm far less interested in special finishes. As much as I did enjoy this bottle, I think some of the notes and sweetness that were my least favorite aspects came from the marsala barrel. It felt like the whisky and marsala were fighting each other at times and that the marsala covered up as much as it added. I'd like to see what the whisky is like without that.
I don't know that you're missing much beyond breadth of experience if you can't get Ledaig. That said, if you enjoy a moderate peat note, then I expect you would enjoy Ledaig.
Nice. I haven't tried any of the expressions, but I've heard good things. I was debating about picking up a bottle of either Yellow or Green Spot on Christmas Eve, but ended up going with something else. Come closer to St. Patrick's Day, I might need to pick up a bottle.
You can't go wrong with any "Spot." Redbreast is another great Irish whiskey. Their 12 is excellent, and the 15 is a knockout.
