Don't know if has been mentioned here or not, the thread is getting progressively tastier, but the Bowmore Darkest 15 yr is another stellar Islay, not as peaty but very nicely finished in a sherry cask to add a bit of sweet to the peat. I wasn't keen on the mix initially, but have come to really like it, and actually just picked up a bottle for under $65 today at No Frills....a steal at that price IMO for a very good 15 yr old Islay.

It was reviewed just today actually by the Globe and Mail and the reviewer gave it a 95, very respectable, and he paid $96 for it!
