Virus_Of_Life Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Been getting quieter in these FWOTM threads, so let's get specific, and see how many people are actually opening them. So for October, and sorry we're late here, the Foreign Whisky of the Month is Ardbeg Supernova 2014.Already highly reviewed by some I'd love to hear what people have to say. Love to see photos of open bottles on this one as well. Slainte! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garbanzobean Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 If anyone wants a bottle, it's still sitting on the shelves in Maryland. I'd be happy to point you to a store that has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnDew Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Found some bottles in KC and opened one of them as soon as I got home. Both my wife and I enjoyed it, she compared the pallet to eating pear sitting around a beach campfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazz Nut Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I am up in the air with this one...there are 4 bottles at my local liquor store for $159. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virus_Of_Life Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 I am up in the air with this one...there are 4 bottles at my local liquor store for $159.I'll tell you the same thing I said to MtnDew ^^, that's pretty cheap from everything I have heard of people getting these across the country. The reviews are all good for the most part. Worst case scenario it may be desired by others for a swap at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChainWhip Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) It's probably one of the better releases since Alligator from Ardbeg - I like it... But whether or not it's worth $159 to you is a question you'll have to answer on your own. Edited October 16, 2014 by ChainWhip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virus_Of_Life Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 So, I had a small pour of this recently, not sure if it was the competition I had before it - as seen in the photo ChainWhip posted in the Wee dram thread - or if it just needs to open up more, but while good, it wasn't great. As others have said, probably the best Ardbeg since Alligator, but not sure how much that is saying when Uigeadail seemed about equal at 1/3 the cost. I'll revisit eventually.
