when I tasted the select back in 2018 I found it a setback, not realising I just started drinking Islay. nowadays I slightly prefer Islay, including Laphroaig. I was really curious what my tasting notes will be a couple of years later. Back in the days I rated the Select with a measly six. Nowadays my rating is much higher. Although definitely younger than the 10th and not that having the bite of Ardbeg's Wee Beastie, I presume this is a 7-8 YO. being honest, I love this one
