    Congratulations to Ardbeg for having the guts to display this big red 5 on the label! 👏👏👏

      I really hope others follow their lead...instead of some fancy name for marketing purposes with no age statement, be honest and put the younger age statement on the label, boost the ABV up, hopefully non chill filter it, hopefully don't add caramel color to it, lower the price from the standard 10-12 yr old, and watch it sell like hotcakes to real whisky connoisseurs!

      Had a boss who was more interested in higher priced, older bottles. With him it was all about ego. Wouldn’t give anything less than 12 years a try. A damn shame really.

    I bought a bottle today around noon not knowing exactly what to expect. After a long day of work and a 5 mile jog in the cool rain, I'm enjoying a glass of this whisky at home under a heated blanket with my siamese cat by my side. I'm watching your great review as I sip. In this moment, life is good. Cheers, and Happy Thanksgiving my friends.

    I like it for what it is! I nursed a bottle of this stuff at my ranch when we had a severe snowstorm a few years back, here in Texas. No power or water for a week. I would have some of this at night by our burning wood stove and it was a truly cinematic experience haha.

    Some honest young Islay whisky is goooooooood news. Personally, i love the QC from Laphroaig, so this new wee beastie is just another option for me, hopefully a great one. Finally someone had the balls to print such a young age on a bottle. Bravo, Ardbeg!

    I tried it a few days ago. It has elements of quite a few of the others, maybe particularly Corryvreckan, like a smokier, younger, possibly unrulier version perhaps. I enjoyed it a lot. I agree with the tar & ham thing which is maybe the An Oa component if you will.

      You could try Laphroaig 10 or Laphroaig Quarter Cask, I think they are slightly cheaper if you want an intense drink. Also, you could try Smokehead (cheaper). However, Ardbeg Wee Beastie is powerful and I love it!
