Anyone going to buy a bottle of the Ardbeg Day bottle. On sale on Ardbeg site now for Â£65 (+£8.50 P&P)?

Got an email from Ardbeg a few days ago saying theyd be selling it from their online shop

surprised when i came on the forum and saw noone had mentioned it... maybe no-one wanted to raise the alarm and increase competition Wink

..but i dont think it'll be hard to get one of these, well not if you buy online from Ardbeg. Was easy to get the last committee release and i think there where fewer of the alligator

starting to feel more and more cheated with these NAS releases by ordered a bottle anyway. would usually get two two but dont think its worht it anymore. wasnt too impressed with Alligator and the fact i love uigeadail and get it cheaper decided to save the cost of a back up bottle

No email for me from Ardbeg (Getting a bit paranoid to be honest). For that reason alone I'm out.

I do think it is good but so is the 10, Corryvreckan and Uigeadail and you can get all them for less

I thought the Ardbeg Day whisky was very good, in fact i only have a couple of drams left in the bottle. I didnt blow me away but it is always good to try a different Ardbeg.
