Laphroaig for the win… Was in Oban a few weeks back for a holiday and got a bottle of Kilchomain from the shop across the road from the distillery (no way was I paying the distillery prices - £75 for a 10 year?). Really enjoying it, quite liking the salty overtones.
I think that Oban had a soapy taste for me that I didn’t like. Laphroaig used to be my go-to, since I’m poor, but it’s gotten steadily more expensive for even the cheapest interations. Now I mostly drink Costco’s Kirkland blended, or bourbon. :/
