I love heavy peat and iodine single malts, so that was my preference for the Supernova. Friends that come over also like that style. I had Laugovolin (sp) and liked that and I hear Ardbeg is beyond that. My last single malt was a Talisker 18 and that was decent. I'd like a little more "stick to your ribs" than the Talisker.
