9 1/5 Screwcaps
Our first entry into liquor can not be anything other than a great Scotch Whisky (No, whisky is not spelled wrong in this case. Anything that is from Scotland has no "e" in "whisky.") like Oban (pronounced O-bin). This powerful peat dominated scotch is sneaky. On the nose, you get peaches, peat smoke and sea salt, but on the palate, there is PEAT PEAT PEAT along with something that is reminiscent of seaweed salad. Golden in texture, this is to the Western Highlands what Lagavulin is to Islay except not as expensive (under $70). Enjoy this neat or with a splash of water.
