Hey guys!
I just wanted to post to say that I'll be back soon. I know it has been a while since the last review.
Don't worry! I have NOT given up scotch (blasphemy), and I'm doing fine.
I had a (very) minor surgery, and the recovery period cut into my drinking/reviewing schedule quite a bit. That said, there should be some good ones coming down in the next week or so.
Thank you to those that emailed in!

Ardbeg Corryvreckan Review and Tasting Notes
Ardbeg is among the companies that has been leading the NAS (no age statement) wave in scotch, and their Corryvreckan just might be the world's most acclaimed NAS scotch.
The Corryvreckan is a beast that has achieved superlative reviews and phenomenal ratings across whisky magazines and review sites. It won the World's Best Single Malt Whisky award at the 2010 World Whisky Awards, and Jim Murray rated it as the best NAS scotch in his famed Whisky Bible.
The whisky takes its name from the famous whirlpool that lies North of the Islay, and the distiller reports that just like the whirlpool, it is "not for the faint of heart." Having sipped of this liquid, I would tend to agree. It is bottled at cask strength at 57.1% ABV and is not chill filtered.
