Luckily, I'm pretty well stocked up, so the year should pass by quickly! Raining here, and so smoky from the Dawson fire, my throat hurts. Sounds like a perfect evening to crack open the bottle of Ardbog....(that's not a misspell!) THAT is a good dram, if you can find it, buy it!

“At its heart our hallmark smoky yet fruity and floral spirit has been matured in Spanish ex-Manzanilla sherry casks for ten years, which has then been wrapped with traditional Ardbeg of the same age that is matured in American ex-bourbon oak casks. The Manzanilla maturation weaves salty flavours through the whisky which is then balanced with the maple syrup creaminess of the first-fill ex-bourbon casks.”
“This dichotomy of savoury and sweet flavours underlines Ardbeg’s status as the most complex of all the Islay Malts.”
I've been hoarding that one pretty tightly for a while now, still have about 2/3s left (half?
) but tonight I indulge. I'm even going to have a little sip for you Kanon
Edit: Yeah, we are definitely at half on that bottle now....nom nom nom......
