Just a quick one this week, loyal readers! It’s been a slog of a week, verily, and while I will be enjoying a whisky in very short order, this isn’t really a “write a bunch of stuff” moment unfortch(*). Instead, this is a BuzzFeed iScotch post!
So, Round 2 for the Ardbeg 10y! We liked it the first time around, but you won’t believe what we thought this time! Here are our top ten or eleven or whatever flavour notes with animated gifs!:
