The only Islay malt I've had so far is Lephoig 10 year and it tasted like band aids...
A couple other more experienced scotch drinkers (one of whom had tasted the Lephoig 10 before) both though it might be off.
I don't know if I got a bad bottle or if it just doesn't agree with my palate. I"m going to revisit Islay after I pick up a few more bottles from Speyside and Highland.
