£65 direct from the Ardbeg online shop so you are probably right Carson as the Ardbeg shop is often slightly more expensive |

I found the Alligator pleasant but a real let-down after the hype. Far too laid back for a whisky sold on the back of advertising talking about having plenty of bite.
The 10 YO is so much better and cheaper too, but at around £60, I'd go for the Uigeadail all day long.

I was a bit disappointed with the Alligator also. As Rob says your money will be better spent on a bottle of Uigeadail or Corryvreckan. |
