When you say "peated" I think to the couple (first one, then another) bottles of Laphroaig I bought as gifts in January. Peaty. Very very smoky peaty. Delicious.
Do you suggest that Laphroaig is junk?
Just asking...I claim no expertise.
No just that specific one Lulu posted.
Peaty Scotch is an acquired taste for sure. I have tried a few. Laphroaig is an Islay region distilled Scotch and that area is noted for its Peat process. I much prefer the Speyside or Highlands distilled Scotch's. I like an aromatic Scotch with a smooth taste. Goes great with a Havana...
Scotch like Bourbon are personal preference. Bourbon I prefer Rye but wheat is pretty damn good but it all boils down to distillers and process.
Tequila quality is where the Agave plant is grown (Highlands or lowlands) and how they process it.
