It is not as uncommon as one might think. Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhain, Caol Ila and even Ardbeg, with their Blasda, have had an unpeated or very low peated expression.

That yella whiskey runnin' down my throat like honey dew vine water and I took another slash…

Bunnahabhain is another of the lightly peated Islay style whiskys. Haven't had that one in years.
Bunnahabhain is a nice dram. Unfortunately, I don't have any, and I can't find it anymore.
Worked on filling out my blended collection:
Chivas Regal Stone of Destiny
Dewar's Signature
Johnnie Walker Blue
Grabbed my first Nikka whisky today, a Yoichi 15. I had the Taketsuru 12 in my hands and as I started talking to the owner about my excitement that he had gotten a Nikka in, he smiled and said, "That's not the only one."Needless to say, I changed my mind. Can't wait to try this.
I am not content with saying "when it's gone, it's gone" - I would like some to enjoy down the road.

Not purchased, but deciding if I should...ran across some Ardbeg Airigh Aam Beist today. Never seen it myself as I was paying none attention to scotch when this was last released. Reading mostly good to great things about it. On sale here for around $80. Wondering what personal opinions any of you SBers may have about this release.
I have always been an Ardbeg fan and this is a great whisky IMO,the price point is great it would be no brainer for me.I haven't seen one of these on a shelf in quite sometime and when they were they were always over $100 sometimes as high as $120.I know you have only recently partaken in the Islay field of whisky,if you enjoy smoke,fire and brimstone buy away as "The Beist" will not disappoint on any level.

If it were me, it'd be in my hand and out to the checkout in no-time-flat. The Beist is a good find in the wild.
