Thank goodness for a Scotsman evaluating and describing a Scottish Malt. Excellent contribution!

[@alexk3088]

This is the type of distillery rep ("brand ambassador", hehehe) that I can appreciate - information, not flannel. Will sample it tonight.

Great music video. Not sure why that guy was trying to talk over it though.

After years of bourbon, Ardbeg stole me away...never to return. SO delicious.

[@ddjackson04]

That's a big statement!!!!!

[@lh8372]

An Oa is definitely a good one!!!

[@lh8372]

OMG turn down the background music...

[@narootchanthachit4927]

Excellent

[@scrimmy45]

I did not like An Oa to begin with - now I love it.

[@ajgtf3]

The awful music is too loud to actually hear what's being said.

[@monsieurdubois2830]

Oh dear God, I love ❤ whisky but I fucking love ❤ to death Islay whiskies!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Denstoradiskmaskinen]

Music comes directly from Blue Oyster Bar, of the Police academy, music is subjective, like coloring of whisky.. add it if you feel the need to gay it up, liberated

I want the job of,the guy in the tartan sweater. He just sits there with a pad in his lap drinking scotch. That’s my job description of choice.

[@siddeshbandekar1913]

Its not smooth, Its not extremely round, Its not polished "That wouldn't be Ardbeg" 🔥 What its not is more interesting than what it is 💯

[@Ridabu]

Wow I hate the music.
