^That Octomore means business.
It’s pretty darn good. Not good enough to justify the price tag, but it’s good.

I never even tried to keep their numbers straight, but the first one I ever bought was worth it. Then I couldn't find that one and bought a different one, and it was like that.
I sound like the old man shouting 'in my days', but I think that Octomore is definitely worth the price tag - I bought it in 2019 for (9.3) for $130 from a Highlander deal. Octomore is the only strong peat that I have had that is drastically and materially different from the rest. I drink it in such small portions as it is a sensory overdose, so to me, it is worth it. Unfortunately, I think those days are long gone... If anyone knows of something close at a lower price point, I am all ears.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Ya I think this one was ~$230. I can think of like 5 varieties from Kilchoman in the $150-185 range that are as good or better than this one was. If you like the taste though, strongly recommend you try some kilchoman (just not the entry level bottles, I haven't been thrilled with any of them).This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Oh what the heck, it was that price as well!
But anyways yes, $129.99 is a good price and it's a delicious scotch.

Based on a quick perusal for affordable Scotch that Benromach 10 and Shackleton Blended Malt look like good deals.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Very true. Zyn typically is price well also.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I really like Benromach! I have the 15 year and it's a beautiful mix of sweet, oily and a bump of peat with a long finish. Heard the 10 is really a steal. Was going to treat myself to the 21 year but surprisingly, it was not well received.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Benromach is killing it these days, the 10 is outstanding value (Costco sells it for dirt cheap). The 21 was one of my favorite drams of the year, looking for a replacement bottle now.
Some bottles gifted to me on the weekend.
