There is no rhyme or reason why I should like this one according to my taste preferences, but I do. It is similar to things in life such as Vietnamese fish sauce, whereby once you get past the smell, you find yourself craving it. Maybe it's like a volatile relationship whereby the couple can't live with each other, nor live without each other.

At any rate, I tasted this one at the bar and bought a bottle the next day. I also did the same thing for Ardbeg 10 a few days later, but when compared side by side, this one has more flavor and body. These are the only two Peat Monsters that I found their way into my collection, as I found Laphroaig 10, Lagavullin 16, and Talisker 10 to be not to my liking at all.
