Sounds serious, I hope to try it out sometime!

Cheers! I appreciate the recommendations, thank you. I definitely want to get a feel for the basic varieties of bourbon, Speyside and Islay. And actually the peat smoke intrigues me, last I tried one I was really only a kid but I remember being excited about the complexity and intensity of the taste.

How do you like the A’Bunadh? “Cask-strength” sounds a bit intimidating to be honest.

Thanks! There are plenty of liquour glasses in my local used ware shops, I’ll look for something like that.
