1. Largely, this whisky is defined by the characteristics of its rich, peated experience. There have been just 150 of the casks made available, with the original whisky peated to an impressive 80.55ppm, only to be surpassed by the following edition.
2. Two reputed names of peated whisky dual it out, with Bruichladdich stepping up with Octomore and Ardbeg responding with a worthy riposte, with levels of phenol at 100ppm. As such, it is a highly peaty malt whisky.
3. Ardbeg revealed a selection of malts following the ageing effects on their peaty whisky. Beginning with the infant 6 year old, this whisky is at its most matured and final, 10 year old stage.
4. Exalted by both Dave Broom and Whisky Mag, this whisky is a well-known trusted Islay dram with a big-kick and a distinguished poise. It is held in such high regard that Jim Murray name checked it as his best whisky worldwide in the 2008 Whisky Bible.
5. There are similarities between this and the health-boosting peat smoke ingredients found in Laphroaig. However, alone this whisky stands tall and robust. It had the accolade of being called the Best Scotch Single Malt in 2005, and its combined fruity sweetness, and tough smoked taste contributes to its fame.
6. This edition has the privilege of being recommended word-of-mouth by Whisky Mag. Laphroaig 10 is a highly reputed whisky with a ripe personality; in fact one of the more finely-tuned whiskies in the world. Its culmination of peat and iodine gives it its distinct coastal taste.

8. The Springbank distillery produces three very different whiskies, each with different peating levels and distillation iterations. Longrow is the peatiest whisky produced at the distillery; this fine example was bottled at cask strength.
9. The Highland distillery Edradour produces this peated whisky, named for a now silent distillery. This heavily peated spirit was matured in fresh Burgundy casks. This was the first release, a limited edition of just 6,000 bottles.
10. A deep, smoky dram, sweetened with touches of sherry, the Lagavulin has been fermented and distilled in a way that most other whiskies haven''t. It has, consequently, a full-bodied character, with a large measure of peat smoke.
