- Ardbeg TEN, 46%, OB

Over Head Projector and sheets, ha ha ha, very 1990’s.
I suppose modern technology is a bit whisky…… i’m sorry :s

Totally didn’t know there existed something like “Danish Whiskey”. :-s Which one did you like best?

Well, Ardbeg isn’t Danish
It comes from the beautiful island Islay.
I must say that the Lord of the Isles (25 y/o) was my favourite. But the 1800 DKK for a bottle is a bit steep. I bought a 1996 Connoisseurs Choice though. And ordered an 1991 OMC, which will come next week.
