Ardbeg 10 is an interesting one I think. I think if you're going to like a complex and strong flavoured brand like Ardbeg, you're going to want the main event, which for me is everything but the 10 year old. I would never turn it down don't get me wrong, and I'd choose it over many things, but it's a gateway drug I think 
I'll see how I get on with the 10. I wanted to try the 77 but at nearly £50 for a miniature, it's a bit pricey for me at the moment. I will try different Ardbeg's in due course.

great little selection there...
Ardbeg 10 is my regular, stumbled across it in a b&b we were staying in.
Went down rather well after a rafting session in North Wales!
The Corryvreckan was on my must try list and was a good price in the duty free.
I am sure you will have a great time getting through your selections

Was in Sainsbury's tonight and took a quick look down the alcohol aisle at the whisky section. Already noticing certain brands.

Parp! Let the weekend commence.
I can't work out if they're miniatures, or if you've accidentally got some tilt shift on your camera.Miniatures for now to get me started. Doing some tasting this weekend and will order bigger bottles of the stuff I like.

Might pick up a bottle of Glengoyne 12 year old tomorrow, as I noticed it was new in Waitrose. Anybody know anything about it?
http://www.masterofmalt.com/whiskies/glengoyne/gle...Completely unpeated (unusual in the highlands), this Glengoyne is soft,
fruity and very quaffable. A fine single malt!

A 12yo Highlander from Glengoyne, famed for their unpeated single
malt.Glengoyne is always very pure in style, allowing their
high-quality, easy-drinking whisky to shine in its natural state.

How are you getting on with your selection? (I must admit, at first glance, I thought you'd gone and bought a bunch of full sized bottles!)I've just finished off my Highland Park 12 Yr Old. Rather a pleasant whisky.
I have noticed something interesting. As I don't drink any other alcohol, people have been startled by the fact that I want to try whisky. I don't want to drink it to get sozzled, I'm interested in the flavours and texture. I even got asked what my mixer will be
.I guess it's a sign of the times that some people think drink is just to get drunk.
