Panchan at Vit Goel (Annandale) - What did I eat?
- w
- wayne keyser Nov 28, 2006 01:21 AM
Lunched at Vit Goel (Lighthouse) Tofu House in Annandale and enjoyed my Soon Dubu very very much - heck of a bargain for $7.50 at lunch (though I can't imagine who else would eat something that hot before 11am, thought I was the only one).
Also felt very well taken care of (us cripplish folks with walkers think about these things) - and didn't get more than one "you ready for spicy?"
Multiple little metal bowls of rice, and she was ready to spoon out more than the two I stopped her at - I'm just supposed to eat the rice, right? I also turned down the cookeed-to-a-crisp remainder of rice I know I'm supposed to add tea to at the end, iot was just way too much for me to eat.
Generous amount of panchan for a single diner 5 little dishes - and I'm wondering about two of them. Fresh (and obviously homemade) bok choy kimchi (fiber-y, but that's the chance you take), something like a fresh napa kimchi in a watered-down broth (a nice "alternate take" on kimchi), marinated/sesame-oil(?) bean sprouts (boring but at least blessedly cooling), and my two mystery items:
1) a TINY DAB (maybe a tablespoon-full) of minced crunchy and VERY SALTY red and white moist bits, couldn't tell if they were hot or not (the soup overwhelmed my ability to tell). Was I supposed to mix this in with something else?
2) the most marvelous cucumber slices - about 1/2" thick, obviously coated with kim,chi-like spice, but underneath they were a bread-and-butter pickle I would eat a gallon of - I would love to make these at home!
Anybody know about these two? Names? Did I identify 'em right?
I'm definitely going back (but maybe I'll wait until afternoon- they start serving that stuff at 10am!)
Sounds a bit different than what I was served at Vit Goel, so I don't think I can help you. I remember a marvelous bowl of squash as the highlight.
Maybe they were green zucchini-squash slices - I thought I had fully indulged my "spice tolerating muscles", but with that quantity and variety of spices on one table, I was a bit overwhelmed.
Kind of confused by the "minced crunchy and VERY SALTY red and white moist bits." Were they crunchy AND moist? If they were chewy, minced, salty, and red and white they might have been dried shredded cuttlefish with peppers.
re: wayne keyser
Spicy pickled radish maybe?
I've having a though time on item two. The flesh cucumber tossed in kimchi like sauce (it hot and sweet flavors) is very good and always served there. But I don't remember something that is like "buttered pickles".
On the first item, I really love that stuff. Its usually lots of garlic with a spicy red pepper sauce and it has chucks of clambs or squid depending on what they happen to have made. I don't know the korean name exactly.
Once the rice is scooped out of the stone bowl, leaving the crust, the waitress will add some tea. By the end of the meal, the crusty rice can be then scraped and eaten like rice soup. It has this really nice mellow flavor developed from browning. I ladle the water and the browned rice into my little bowl and add some of item #1 and it is fantastic.
I would love to help (since I am Korean), and also because I've been to that place recently. Can't quite figure out what you have described though, sorry :)
One thing, there are tens or maybe hundreds of different sorts of kimchis out there, including the one with cucumber (we call it cucumber kimchi), there are non-spicy kimchis, radish kimchis etc. etc.
Just don't forget to put the raw egg into the soondubu before you start off, and stir it well.
I personally like Vitgoel a lot, and I tend to be picky on the food that I have..next time you go there, have the soondubu with the Popeye(?)Galbi(which costs like $12-13, you can share it altogether), which is bbq meat, readily-grilled and served hot.
1) This is "juhtgal" or "juht" for short; the "uh" is pronounced like the "u" in "just", not "july". It's marinated bits of certain kinds of seafood, plus some bits of radishes or other crunchy veggies. Very salty and somewhat spicy, as you described. The most popular ingredients are fish guts (default "juhtgal" I think), shrimp ("saewoojuht") and squid ("o-jing-uh-juht"). Theirs was squid I think.
2) As previous posters have said, this is just their version of "o-yee-kimchi" (cucumber kimchi) which is served widely. I liked their version a lot too. Crunchy and refreshing, instead of other instances where it's too mushy.

From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
So my back story here is that I will be booking Extreme Rising from the first event and beyond. I plan on using a lot of the same guys that they currently use, albeit with a few new faces thrown in, as well as putting my own spin on things.
1. Blk Out vs.
The Dramatics
*Luke Hawx comes out and cuts a promo on Shane Douglas.*
Main Show
2. B.W.O. w/ Thomas Rodman vs. The FBI
*The FBI wins when Luke Hawx comes down to the ring and grabs Stevie Richards leg. Following the match, Stevie nails Thomas Rodman with the Steviekick.*
3. Al Snow w/ Head vs.
CW Anderson
Axl Rotten
vs. Balls Mahoney
*Following intermission, Angel of The Baldies comes out and cuts a promo, calling out anyone who wants to come out and prove that theyre the baddest. The Gangstas music hits and New Jack and Mustafa then proceed to enter the ring and beat the hell out of Angel. Just as they are about to put Angel through a table, Blk Out hits the ring and attacks The Gangstas. Angel then joins in and the three continue beating on The Gangstas. When they are finished, they all walk to the back together.*
Pitbull Gary Wolfe w/ Christina Vicious
vs. Raven w/ The New Flock
*A disaster of a match. Raven did not even wrestle, opting instead to cut a promo on Extreme Reunion, saying that these reunions are just for fags and morons. Ravens Flock then attacks Gary Wolfe who is saved by The Sandman when he makes his grand entrance. The Sandman enters the ring and canes each member of The Flock, allowing Gary Wolfe to cover one of them and get the victory.*
6. Devon Storm vs.
Jerry Lynn
*Changed to Devon Storm vs. Jerry Lynn at the last minute when Justin Credible was unable to perform. During the match, Jerry Lynn gets in to an altercation with Homicide who is sitting at ringside. Following the match, Jerry Lynn announced that he would be retiring sometime early next year.*
Shane Douglas
vs. Too Cold Scorpio w/ Bill Alfonso
*Another match that had to be changed due to Sabu also not being in any condition to perform. During the match both Kevin Sullivan and Tod Gordon interfered.*
Timeline of Events
4/30/2012 -
Via a video post on Extreme Reunion's official YouTube/Facebook page, Shane Douglas apologizes to the fans for the disaster that was Extreme Reunion. Shane announces that as of today, all future plans for Extreme Reunion are put on hold as he and his business partners re-assess everything. No details are revealed but Shane does assure everyone that this is not the end.
5/7/2012 -
Once again, via a video post on Extreme Reunion's official YouTube/Facebook page, Shane Douglas announces a major re-shifting of the strategy of Extreme Reunion. First off, gone is the name Extreme Reunion and in its place will be Extreme Rising. Second, due to their actions at and before the Extreme Reunion event, going forward Extreme Rising will no longer be working with Justin Credible, Sabu, or Raven. Shane thanks them for their contributions to the legacy of extreme but says that they can no longer work together. In addition to that, it will be the policy of Extreme Rising that anyone who shows up to a show unfit to perform will immediately be black-listed and will no longer receive bookings from Extreme Rising. Third, Shane announces that he is removing himself from the active wrestling roster for Extreme Rising effective immediately to focus solely on booking the shows. Assisting Shane will be Kevin Sullivan who has volunteered his time. Forth, Shane announces that Tod Gordon will be joining Shane and his partners with Five Guys Wrestling where he will take over talent relations and some of the business side of the company. Last but not least, Shane announces a return event, called "Redemption" which will take place at the Pennsylvania National Guard Armory Friday June 29th. The event will also be live on iPPV.

Re: From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
Interesting and very original on this forum. It'll be interesting to see how you shape this new company's identity and who you push as the faces of the company. Good luck

Re: From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
So this is how I will be doing things going forward. Since, at this time, Extreme Rising does not have a T.V. deal, I will be doing most of the promo work via outside means such as what I have posted below. As a result my shows may not be as long as others. Also, I won't be posting a roster since a lot of the guys will be coming and going from show to show. You'll figure out who my core guys are pretty quickly anyway.
Breaking News: Matt Hardy announced for "Redemption"
From Extreme Rising's Facebook page...
One of the most controversial free agent wrestlers out there today, a member of one of the most innovative and popular tag teams in wrestling history, Matt Hardy joins the land of extreme, starting June 29th at "Redemption".
Raven responds to being blacklisted by Extreme Rising
In a YouTube video, Raven responds to the news that because of his actions at Extreme Reunion, he will no longer be booked by Extreme Rising. This is some of what he had to say...
"It's just laughable, I'm being made out to be a scapegoat is what's happening here. Shane Douglas you knew very well what I was going to do, hell you even ok'd it and just because it didn't get the reaction you expected, I'm suddenly a bad guy? What's up with that? Look at The Sandman. Once again drunk off his ass but since he got a good reaction from the crowd, that's all forgiven. Believe me, these transgressions will not go unnoticed...
Raven has also started a poll on his website asking fans whether or not Extreme Rising should continue booking him. Surprisingly enough, a massive majority of those who have already voted have voted "yes".
New Jack & Mustafa issue challenge to Blk Out
In a video posted by Extreme Rising, The Gangstas New Jack and Mustafa issue a challenge to Blk Out for the upcoming "Redemption" show...
"You n****s think you bad or somethin'? Just 'cause you jumped us from behind like little bitches? You ain't nothin'!...But, if you're bound and determined to prove yourselves by acting like little tough guys, then step up to the plate mother f***ers and face me and Mustafa June 29th at the National Guard Armory. Be ready for the ass whoopin' of your lives..."
Blk Out simply responded to the Gangstas challenge by posting "You're on." to Extreme Rising's Facebook page.
Main Event Announced for "Redemption"
Via Extreme Rising's Facebook page, the main event for the upcoming "Redemption" show has been announced...
"They saved the first show, now Jerry Lynn and Devon Storm go at it once again, this time in the main event."
In addition to Jerry Lynn vs. Devon Storm II, already announced for "Redemption" is The Gangstas vs. Blk Out. More matches are expected to be announced very shortly.

Re: From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
Interview with Matt Hardy: Thoughts on joining Extreme Rising, "Redemption" Opponent Revealed, & More
Matt Hardy recently gave an interview, his first since it was announced that he will be joining Extreme Rising at their upcoming "Redemption" iPPV event. Here are some snippets...
Thoughts on joining Extreme Rising:
"Although I wasn't ever in the original company, I watched it very closely as me and Jeff were doing a lot of similar things, tables, ladders, chairs, and the like. Myself and that extreme style seemed like a perfect fit but we were never able to cross paths until now. So yeah, I'm excited about it. I think it's the perfect opportunity for me to invent myself, to try something new and I think it's going to work out great."
On becoming accepted by the extreme fans:
"Obviously everyone knows how tough they can be on a wrestler, if you mess up they're going to let you know about it. I just have to make sure that I bring my A game, that I always put on great matches and I think that eventually they'll come to accept me."
Opponent for "Redemption"?:
"I'm not 100% sure about this yet so I probably shouldn't be saying anything but the last I heard my first opponent is Too Cold Scorpio which I think is probably the best possible opponent for me because he's an extreme original, an extreme legend and he can still go pretty dang well so we're going to tear it up."
Shane Douglas Interview: Blacklisting talent, new talent announced, & More
Continuing his media rounds promoting Extreme Rising, Shane Douglas sat down for yet another interview where he was asked several questions about Extreme Rising including...
Blacklisting Sabu, Justin Credible, and Raven:
"Believe me it wasn't easy. I mean these are guys that have been my friends for a long time, they are incredibly important to the history of extreme but despite all that we needed to do what's best for us going forward and that was to send a clear message to the fans that we will not accept that kind of behavior. We're not anti-party here, we just need to make sure that our talent show up in the best possible condition to perform for those fans who paid their hard earned money to see them."
Any chance of reconciliation?:
"We'll see. I just spoke with Raven not too long ago and got a few issues squared up but right now it's hard to tell. I'd have to see a lot of change before I'd even consider it at this point."
Finding the right balance of nostalgia and new blood:
"How big we become will depend on how well we mix the original extreme misfits with the new blood that we've been bringing in. But we also can't just bring in any random newcomer and expect them to succeed, no we need to find wrestlers who, if ECW were still around today, would most likely be a part of that. I think we're off to a great start on that with a guy like Luke Hawx and someone as well someone who is as well known as Matt Hardy. I'm also pleased to announced that we're bringing back extreme lucha libre starting at "Redemption" with two newcomers in Pesadilla and Bestia 666. These guys may not be household names but they come from well known blood lines, Pesadilla being the nephew of the "Insane Luchador" Super Crazy and Bestia 666 being the son of the legendary Damian 666. Those two I'm especially excited about, can't wait to unleash them come June 29th."
The future of Extreme Rising:
"I would love for it to get as big as the original ECW but I know very well that ECW was one of a kind and nothing can replace or replicate its success. All we can hope for is that we give the fans what they're not getting from TNA or WWE, that is good, logical story lines mixed with great wrestling and that I know we can do."
Balls Mahoney challenges anyone to Hardcore Brawl
Via a Youtube video...
"Extreme Reunion, the chair swinging freaks Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten put on yet another bloody, hardcore brawl, one for the record books. Now, looking forward to June 29th, I'm ready to do it again but this time me and Axl ain't going at it, no this time I want someone new, anyone who dares get in the ring with me and challenges me to a hardcore brawl. It can be an extreme original, it can be one of the new guys, it doesn't matter, all I know is, get ready for blood!"
Luke Hawx vs. Stevie Richards announced for "Redemption", Luke Hawx responds
Only a few short hours after Luke Hawx vs. Stevie Richards was announced for "Redemption", Luke Hawx posted a video of himself outside the old ECW arena...
"I think it's fitting. Here I stand outside the former ECW arena, an arena which has housed some of the most memorable moments in wrestling history, an arena, much like the legacy it helped create, which is starting to decay. Don't get me wrong, I am not anti-ECW, no I'm the farthest thing from it. What I am opposing is these ECW reunions. How many has there been? 5, 10, 15? And what's the common theme in all of them? Yep that's right, they all failed! Much like the company that they try to recreate, they fail and fail miserably. Yet nobody has yet had the balls to finally put the bullet in the head of the ECW legacy once and for all, until me. That's right, I am going to come to "Redemption" June 29th and starting with you Stevie Richards I am going to kill off the legacy of ECW once and for all!"
Final Card announced for "Redemption"
The final card for "Redemption" was announced just a bit ago on Extreme Rising's Facebook page and it is as follows...
Devon Storm vs. Jerry Lynn
Blk Out vs. The Gangstas
Luke Hawx vs. Stevie Richards
Bestia 666 vs. Pesadilla
Matt Hardy vs. Too Cold Scorpio
Balls Mahoney vs. ???
Also scheduled: Shane Douglas, Tod Gordon, CW Anderson, Pitbull Gary Wolfe, the F.B.I. The Dramatics, The Sandman, & more

Re: From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
Extreme Rising Presents: Redemption
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania National Guard Armory
Extreme Rising opens the show with ring announcer Steven DiAngeles welcoming everyone back. Steven then introduces one half of tonight's broadcast team for the iPPV, Robbie Mireno. Robbie comes out to the ring to a "who are you?" reaction from the crowd here in Philly. Robbie runs down the card scheduled for tonight, the boos from the crowd getting louder and louder as he goes on. Robbie then turns his focus and tries to get more heat by using the "I'm better than you" approach but he fails miserably at it. He is saved from further embarrassment when Joel Gertner, the other half of the broadcast team, makes his way down the ring. Once in the ring, Joel rhymes for the audience which brings the audience back up from where they were when they were booing Robbie Mireno. Joel finishes his poems and the two broadcasters exit the ring so Steven DiAngeles can announce the first match.
Match #1: The Dramatics vs. The F.B.I.
Getting their shot to wrestle on the main show after having wrestled a pre-show match at Extreme Reunion, The Dramatics make their return as they take on ECW originals and fan favorites The F.B.I. From the opening bell, the much bigger and stronger Dramatics dominate. There is a brief window there where Little Guido and Tony Mamaluke manage to mount a little bit of offense but it doesn't last long. To The F.B.I.'s credit, the veterans do manage to hang in the match for a while but one has to wonder if that was the smart move or not. After several long minutes of getting squashed, The F.B.I.'s fight finally wears out and The Dramatics finish them off, getting their first ever victory here in Extreme Rising.
Winners: The Dramatics
Match #2: CW Anderson vs. Pitbull Gary Wolfe w/ Christina Vicious
Quickly transitioning from the first match to the second match, Redemption moves on to match #2. This match tonight features two ECW originals in "The Enforcer" CW Anderson and "Pitbull" Gary Wolfe. Gary Wolfe, after having been involved in an absolute disaster of a "match" against Raven at Extreme Reunion, looks to get off on a better foot tonight as he takes on a tough opponent in CW Anderson. As you would expect from these two, the match is very physical. The two immediately proceed to beating the living daylights out of each other. Neither one really has any sort of advantage until the end of the match when Gary Wolfe decides to try and use his secret weapon, his valet Christina. Christina gets up on the ring apron to distract the referee which in turn distracts CW Anderson, enough for Gary Wolfe to get an opening that he can take advantage of. Gary Wolfe locks himself in on CW Anderson and after a brief struggle, he hits his finisher and covers CW for the 1, 2, 3.
Winner: Pitbull Gary Wolfe
Match #3: Balls Mahoney vs. ??? – Anything Goes
Once both Gary Wolfe and CW Anderson get up and make their way to the back, AC/DC's Big Balls hits and the crowd goes wild as Balls Mahoney steps out of the entrance curtain, steel chair in hand. Recently Balls posted a video on YouTube where he called out anyone, challenging them to an anything goes hardcore match. Once in the ring, Balls grabs a microphone and starts taunting the back locker room, trying to get anyone to come out and face him. Balls doesn't wait long, as soon as he starts taunting, his challenge is accepted when The Blue Meanie steps out of the curtain. Balls can't believe it. The Blue Meanie steps in to the ring and extends his hand towards Balls, in a show of good sportsmanship. Balls shakes his hand and the match is on. As one would expect from these two, this was not anywhere near close to being a traditional wrestling match, but rather a bloody, violent fight. Only a minute or so in and the match has already spilled out to the floor outside the ring. Both men begin pulling weapons from under the ring or wherever they can find them and start using them on their opponent. The crowd is loving it, as they are chanting "E-C-DUB, E-C-DUB" at the first sight of blood. After having used nearly every weapon imaginable, no one knows exactly where the violence goes from here, except for Balls Mahoney. Setting up a table in the middle of the ring, with The Blue Meanie struggling to stand up at his feet, Balls pulls out a bottle of lighter fluid and sprays it on the table. He then pulls out a lighter and lights the table on fire! He struggles to get The Blue Meanie to his feet but he manages to do it just in time. With an awful looking power bomb, Balls throws the Meanie through the table. The referee then checks on The Blue Meanie and when it's determined that the Meanie cannot continue, the referee declares Balls Mahoney the winner.
Winner: Balls Mahoney
Match #4: Luke Hawx vs. Stevie Richards
Once all the mess has been cleaned up from the previous match, the next match can begin. Before Steven DiAngeles can even begin to introduce it, Luke Hawx interrupts. Walking down the entrance way, Luke Hawx continues his crusade against the extreme legacy by burying the previous match and all others like it, calling it a disgrace to wrestling. He then says that he is going to take out each and every one of the extreme originals, one by one starting with his opponent tonight, Stevie Richards. On cue, Stevie Richards' music hits and he wastes no time getting to the ring, dashing from the entrance curtain to the ring area where Luke Hawx awaits. Stevie takes Luke down and starts beating on him right away but eventually Luke gets away. This is a pattern that continues throughout the whole match, Stevie catches Luke and beats on him, and then Luke manages to slither out. Luke just does not seem very focused on Stevie Richards, rather he seems more interested in arguing with the fans that trying to take out his opponent. It is this focus on the fans instead of Stevie that ends up costing Luke the match. Back in the ring, a group of fans gets Luke's attention. With his back turned to Stevie so he can argue with the fans, this allows Stevie to lock in and wait. Once Luke turns around, Stevie nails him with the Stevie kick, following it up with the cover and the 1, 2, 3.
Winner: Stevie Richards
Stevie gets a well-deserved victory and Luke Hawx gets put in his place at the same time. As the referee raises Stevie's hand, Luke Hawx collects himself, gets up to his feet, and blindsides Stevie from behind. Luke starts beating on him but it doesn't last long. "Enter Sandman" starts playing and the crowd erupts as The Sandman makes his appearance tonight. Rather than come through the crowd, The Sandman makes his way to the ring via the entrance way and unlike Extreme Reunion, he does it fast. Luke notices The Sandman running towards him and quickly ducks out of the ring, exiting through an opening in the crowd. The Sandman enters the ring and points his kendo stick at Luke as the fans sing along to "Enter Sandman." Someone from the outside hands The Sandman a beer and you know what happens after that. The Sandman then offers a beer to Stevie Richards and the two celebrate in the ring together as Luke Hawx backs his way out of the arena.
Match #5: Bestia 666 vs. Pesadilla
Back from intermission, and before match #5 can begin, the music of "The Franchise" Shane Douglas hits. The crowd goes wild as Shane, dressed in nice management style clothes, makes his way down to the ring. Shane thanks the fans in attendance and the fans watching on iPPV for supporting them even though they got off to a rough start. Shane then transitions in to talking about one of the things that made the original ECW so great, that being all the luchadors that Paul Heyman brought in from Mexico. Guys such as Psychosis, Rey Misterio Jr., and of course the late great Eddie Guerrero. Shane then introduces two guys that he says will be leading the new charge of extreme Lucha Libre, them two being Bestia 666 and Pesadilla.
Once the two luchadors are finally in the ring together, the match can begin. The crowd is a little unsure of what to make of these two, since although they come from well-known extreme bloodlines, they themselves aren't that well known yet. But as the pace and the action of the match picks up, the crowd gets more and more in to it. As you would expect from a Lucha Libre match, there is a lot of high risk, high flying, quick moves put on display by these two. However, neither seem to be getting much of an advantage. It is very 50/50 until a slip up by Pesadilla causes Bestia 666 to take permanent control. After a couple minutes of wearing down his opponent, Bestia 666 gets Pesadilla in position for his finisher, La Valagueza. Bestia hits it and quickly covers Pesadilla, getting the win.
Winner: Bestia 666
Match #6: Blk Out vs. The Gangstas
Switching gears, and styles, Redemption rolls on with match #6 tonight, a match that The Gangstas initiated when they posted a video on YouTube calling out Blk Out for jumping them from behind at Extreme Reunion. Blk Out are first to the ring, taking the same route as Luke Hawx did, trashing the fans and trashing their opponents. They are quickly shut up when "Natural Born Killers" starts blaring throughout the armory. The Gangstas, New Jack and Mustafa, begin making their way to the ring, with a shopping cart full of weapons in tow. The Gangstas enter the ring and all hell breaks loose. Instead of trying to take control, the referee simply decides to let them go, throwing the rule book out the window. The Gangstas start empting their shopping cart, using all the weapons inside one by one on Blk Out, weapons from baseball bats to kendo sticks to hockey sticks, even using the shopping cart itself on occasion. Blk Out doesn't get much offense at all, if any, in on The Gangstas, rather it seems that they are just simply trying to survive this beating. The brawl soon spills out in to the crowd. New Jack is battling Blk Jeez and Mustafa is battling Ruckus. Mustafa and Ruckus stay closer to the ring while New Jack and Blk Jeez move towards the back. New Jack then spots a table that has merchandise on it sitting right next to the back bleachers. He hatches an idea. Tossing all the merchandise off the table, New Jack puts Blk Jeez on the table and then proceeds to climb on to the bleachers. Once New Jack reaches the top, he jumps off, landing right on top of Blk Jeez, driving him through the table. The referee, having seen enough, declares The Gangstas the winners.
Winners: The Gangstas
Match #7: Matt Hardy w/ Reby Sky vs. Too Cold Scorpio w/ Bill Alfonso
After The Gangstas and Blk Out have been led to the back and all their mess has been cleaned up, the show can move on. Match #7 features a newcomer to Extreme Rising but certainly not a newcomer to the world of wrestling, that man being Matt Hardy. Matt, accompanied to the ring by his girlfriend Reby Sky, as expected gets a very bad reaction from the crowd in Philly. Matt is very aware of this and knows that he must put on a good showing here tonight if he is to be accepted by the extreme audience. His opponent, someone who is very accepted by the extreme audience, that man being Too Cold Scorpio, also begins making his way to the ring, followed closely behind by his manager Bill Alfonso.
Once in the ring, both Too Cold and Matt Hardy lock up. Looking like he is trying very hard not to screw up, Matt Hardy has a hard time in the early goings with regards to getting any sort of offense in. Too Cold, with the audience on his side, dominates. Too Cold continues to dominate until an argument on the outside takes his focus away. Bill Alfonso, who has been yelling at and taunting Reby Sky all match, finally gets in her face. We can't tell exactly what they're saying but it appears that Bill is telling her that she has no business here. The two then get in to a brief psychical altercation which only ends when Atlas Security breaks the two up. Seeing his opponent distracted and seeing his girlfriend hold her own, Matt Hardy gets a second wind which he uses to take control of the match. Too Cold stays in the match for quite some time after that but he is unable to regain the success that he had previously. Slowly but surely the crowd starts turning towards Matt Hardy which empowers him even further. Once the crowd gets as much behind him as possible, Matt decides it's time to end it. Seeing the opportunity, Matt hits a Twist of Fate on Too Cold which he follows up with a pin attempt and the 1, 2, 3.
Winner: Matt Hardy
Following their match, Matt Hardy attempts to help Too Cold up, in a show of respect for the extreme original but Too Cold will have nothing of it. Deciding instead to blow Hardy off, Too Cold gets up by himself and heads to the back by himself. There is nothing Hardy can do but shrug his shoulders and start heading to the back as well. Once in the back, the main event can begin.
Match #8: Devon Storm vs. Jerry Lynn
In a rematch from Extreme Reunion which many people agree was the match that saved the event from being a complete disaster, Devon Storm takes on Jerry Lynn. Both men get amazing reactions from the crowd as they make their way to the ring, the crowd showing each man how much they appreciated their efforts at Extreme Reunion. Once both men enter the ring the match can begin. Early on the match is very back and forth, taking on the look of a more traditional ground and pound wrestling match with each man trading submission holds back and forth. Once they get sick of that, the action starts to pick up, eventually spilling out to the floor below. Now on the outside, the action starts to favor Jerry Lynn that is until he notices Homicide once again sitting at ringside. The two get in to an argument where Homicide attempts to try and punch Jerry but is stopped when Atlas Security intervene. This turns the tide in the match back towards Devon Storm. Devon has control until the crowd, who has been more behind Jerry Lynn, starts cheering for him even more which boosts him up enough to fight his way back in to the match. It now becomes a case of who will give first. Each man trades moves back and forth, neither giving up any ground. The match looks like it could go on forever until out of nowhere Devon Storm surges ahead and takes control, never letting it go. He struggles for about a minute to get Jerry Lynn in to the right place but once he does he hits the Eye of the Storm, following it up with a cover and the 1, 2, 3.
Winner: Devon Storm
Following the end of the match, Devon Storm gets his hand raised by the referee and then once that's over, he proceeds to go directly towards the back. Once Jerry Lynn manages to get to his feet, the crowd cheers him as he heads to the back. The show ends with Steven DiAngeles thanking everyone.

Re: From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
Backstage Notes From "Redemption"
- The crowd was much smaller than it was for Extreme Reunion, the final total coming in around 800 which still can be viewed as a success considering all the bad publicity surrounding Extreme Reunion.
- The iPPV went off fairly well. Only a few technical issues were reported which were resolved quickly.
- No issues regarding wrestlers, everyone showed up on time and ready to go.
Fallout w/ Robbie Mireno - Episode #1
Following the end of "Redemption", Robbie Mireno caught up with Matt Hardy, Devon Storm, and Luke Hawx as they were exiting the building...
Matt Hardy
Robbie Mireno:
So Matt, first time wrestling in front of an extreme crowd here in Philly and you managed to pick up a win even, what's that feeling like?
Matt Hardy:
Can't lie, it's a good feeling. I set out to show the fans that I can hang in these "extreme" environments, against anybody and I think I took a pretty big first step tonight.
Robbie Mireno:
Are you worried at all that the fans of Extreme Rising may not accept you, ever?
Matt Hardy:
I think they will. Like I've said before, I believe as long as I can put on good matches and as long as I bring my A-game every time, I'm sure they'll come to accept me.
Robbie Mireno:
Is it safe to say then that your goal here is just to gain acceptance?
Matt Hardy:
Of course I want to be the champion, it's foolish of any wrestler not to set their goals as high as possible but I also can't be the champion without the fans so yeah, you could say that my first goal at least is to get accepted.
Robbie Mireno:
One final question, during the match your girlfriend got in to quite an argument with Bill Alfonso, care to shed any light on what that was about?
Matt Hardy:
I wish I knew. I better go try and find out, talk to you later man.
Devon Storm
Robbie Mireno:
Devon, congratulations on the win.
Devon Storm:
Robbie Mireno:
Ok, umm, now that you've beaten Jerry Lynn, where do you go from here?
Devon Storm:
....It's not really a true win when stupid punks in the audience can just interfere whenever they want.
Robbie Mireno:
But you won, why should that matter?
Devon Storm:
It matters to me!
Devon then walks off camera.
Luke Hawx
Robbie Mireno:
Luke Hawx:
Shut up Robbie and let me talk...Sandman, Stevie, you two has-beens may have gotten the win and pulled one over on me, congratulations but this is not over. You may have your moments, you may win the little battles here and there but the war has just begun. I'll take on any of you fat drugged out losers, it doesn't matter, hell I'd even take on "The Franchise" himself, it doesn't matter. None of you scare me because extreme is dead and I'm the one who's going to piss on its grave.

Re: From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
Breaking News: Dates & Locations for "The Extreme Roadtrip" Announced/ Two New ECW Originals Announced
Via Extreme Rising's Facebook page and official website...
"We here at Extreme Rising are proud to announce that we are stepping away from Philly and the National Guard Armory for three straight nights to bring our new brand of extreme to cities and venues that were a huge part of the original extreme legacy. On Friday October 12th, we are headed to Monaca, Pennsylvania and the CCBC Golden Dome, the site of the groundbreaking ECW pay per view November to Remember 1997. Then on Saturday October 13th we head to Poughkeepsie, New York and the Mid-Hudson Civic Center, finishing up the roadtrip in Corona, New York at the Elmcor Youth And Adult Activities Center. And we are also proud to announce that we will be joined on The Extreme Roadtrip by ECW originals Perry Saturn and "The Man Beast" Rhino. Join us as we take extreme on the road!"
Raven promises to be on The Extreme Roadtrip
Not long after Extreme Rising announced The Extreme Roadtrip, Raven posted a video to his YouTube account where he promises to show up at each of the Extreme Roadtrip events, whether he's invited or not...
"Shane Douglas, I told you that your transgressions would not go unnoticed, I told you not to ignore me but you did anyway. Despite the overwhelming majority of fans who wanted me on the show, you ignored them and me and kept me off the show anyway. I'm done playing games with you. I'm coming to each and every one of your previous "extreme roadtrip" events, I'll buy a ticket and sit in the damn audience if I have to but I am going to be there. There's going to be no ignoring me this time. Quote the Raven, nevermore..."

Re: From Reunion to Rising: An Extreme Redemption
Homicide to wrestle on "Extreme Roadtrip"/ Devon Storm responds
- Within just a couple hours of the announcement that Homicide will be stepping in to the ring for Extreme Rising on all three of the "Extreme Roadtrip" events, Devon Storm responded by storming in to the office of "The Franchise" Shane Douglas, demanding that he get his hands on "The Notorious 187". Whatever he said must have been really persuasive because following the meeting it was announced that Devon Storm vs. Homicide was booked for the October 13th event in Poughkeepsie, New York.
Luke Hawx to face three different extreme originals on "Extreme Roadtrip"
- In response to Luke Hawx's video posts and his rants at live Extreme Rising events, management has decided to book him against three different extreme originals for each of the three "Extreme Roadtrip" events. On 10/12 Luke Hawx is scheduled to face the debuting Perry Saturn, then on 10/13 Luke goes face to face with "The New F'N Show" Jerry Lynn, finishing up the roadtrip on 10/14 against "The Man Beast" Rhino. Shockingly, Luke did not have much to say on the matter, choosing to respond with a short post on his Facebook page...
"Three different extreme original opponents? Ha, that's funny."
Breaking News: Hijo De Rey Misterio Added to "Extreme Roadtrip"
- Via Extreme Rising's Facebook page...
"We are proud to announce that the heir of the Misterio legacy, Hijo De Rey Misterio, will be joining the "Extreme Roadtrip" on October 13th and 14th."

The Great Bend Fire and EMS Department is planning a short remembrance ceremony next Sunday on the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon. The ceremony at 8:30 a.m. at Fire Station No. One, 1205 Williams St., is in honor of all the public safety and military personnel who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001, GBFD Fire Chief Mike Napolitano said.
HOISINGTON - Dressed in all of their finery, eight Hoisington Labor Day princess contestants laughed, waved and enjoyed the audience on Saturday as a part of the 115th annual Hoisington Labor Day celebration.
- Three hundred and fifty Barton County second graders flocked to the Kansas Wetlands Education Center on Thursday for the 2nd annual Wetlands Education Day to learn about the wild, wonderful wetlands in Barton County. It was hosted by the Friends of Cheyenne Bottoms.
Cutting edge technology at Barton Community College includes a portal to the website, and electronic money systems. The president's staff described the innovations last week at the BCC Board of Trustees Study Session.
A jury trial for Shawn Ney, the Barton County man accused of shooting his estranged wife and fatally shooting Steven Calderwood with a shotgun last summer, is set to begin Jan. 9, 2012, in Barton County District Court. Ney, 33, is charged with the first-degree murder of Calderwood, and for attempted first-degree murder of Sarah Ney, on July 10, 2010. He is also charged with aggravated burglary, a charge that was added because he allegedly forced his way into the house at 48 NE 20 Road to commit those crimes.
Just in time for local drivers to head out on their last summer break, they found that several of the local gas stations had taken another jump and gas was back at $3.50 for several places in the community.
Administrators at Barton Community College shared plans Thursday for a program to train firefighters. Barton will partner with the Great Bend Fire Department to offer a fire science certificate.
HOISINGTON - Brent Rensch, retired plant manager of Superior Essex, is known for his love of people and for this reason, was named Hoisington Labor Day Grand Marshal.
Due to lingering concerns about the economy, the number of Americans expected to travel during summer's last gasp this weekend is down from the 2010 Labor Day travel period, the American Automobile Association reports. The same holds true for Kansas and the other states in AAA's West North Central Region.
As federal officials are proving again on the East Coast, you don't wait until after the emergency to prepare - at least you don't if you hope to have any success in dealing with the emergency.
It's a tough number to get a handle on, but Kansas Action for Children estimates there are 75,000 children in the state without health insurance.
It's been some time since readers have submitted questions to this column, but lately we've received several, all weather-related.
Doing more with less only goes so far, and county officials are seeing where that philosophy starts having negative dividends.
Abend Brot or a German Evening Supper will once again be offered by the Ellinwood Community Historical Society during the Kristkindlmart in Ellinwood on Dec. 6 It will begin in late afternoon until 6 p.m.
The laugh is on Neil Simon, literally.
Each week we'll take a step back into the history of Great Bend through the eyes of reporters past. We'll reacquaint you with what went into creating the Great Bend of today, and do our best to update you on what "the rest of the story" turned out to be.

Recommended For: Light Flow, Average Flow, Heavy Flow, Light Bladder Leaks
Sizes AvailableXS S M L XL
Includes 1 ALEXANDRIA Hipster + 1 Removable Insert View Size Chart
Our new ALEXANDRIA Hipster is adjusable to fit your flow. The leak-proof lining keeps your clothing stain-free while removable Inserts can be added to increase absorbency as needed. Change Inserts throughout the day to keep comfortable and dry. ALEXANDRIA Lunapanties are versatile; wear without an insert for light flow, spotting, use with The DivaCup or other menstrual product -- or add the Insert of your choice for average to heavy menstrual flow or light bladder leaks.
This new Hipster cut sits low on the hip and features non-elasticized leg openings for added comfort and less visible panty lines.
Sizes XS - LG include 1 Maxi Insert. Mini Inserts are not compatible. For sizes 2XL and 3XL, see our Factory Seconds ALEXANDRIA Hipster, MAIA Organic Hipster, or Queen Size Dear Kate Amelia Hipster.
Made in Egypt
ConstructionMade from 95% Cotton and 5% Lycra. Gusset is lined with PUL (polyurethane laminate) and microfibre padding. Insert is made from 2 layers of 100% cotton fleece.
PerformanceWorn on their own without an Insert, the ALEXANDRIA Hipster will last approximately as long (per use) as a disposable pad or pantyliner. Inserts can be added for additional absorbency as needed, allowing you to use the same panties for a full day. Changing your Insert as needed is the key to staying comfortable and dry. Alexandria underwear will hold approximately .5 oz or 15 ml of liquid.
Wash by hand or machine in any temperature with your regular detergent. Pre-soaking or rinsing in cold water prior to washing is recommended, but not always necessary, particularly if they are not heavily saturated. Please note that if Lunapanties are being soaked, soaking water must be changed daily.
We recommend natural cleaning products such as Nellie's All Natural Laundry Soda for regular cleaning, and Buncha Farmers Stain Remover to perk up stained Lunapanties. Heavy stains may also benefit from occasional machine wash and dry in hot settings or air drying in direct sunlight.
Please avoid the use of chlorine bleach or fabric softeners to clean Lunapanties, as this will decrease the performance of the products and is harmful to the environment.
Inserts can be added as desired by inserting the ends under the bands in the gusset panel. Multiple Inserts may be inserted for increased absorbency. Inserts can be refreshed throughout the day or night as desired by simply removing and replacing.
Sizes XS - LG include 1 Maxi Liner Insert. Sizes XL - 3XL include 1 Long Liner Insert. Add Maxi Inserts or Long Inserts to increase absorbency. Mini Inserts are not compatible.

The Fire Of God empowers the believer to do the works of the ministry. It burns out all the dross and the fear of Man. It cleanses our hearts and fills us with boldness. Jesus is the baptiser in the Holy Ghost and Fire. (Luke 3:16, Matthew 3:11) Join Donna Burk and I tonight as we teach on The Fire Of God. But as always, since we follow the Holy Spirit and do what He wants, everything is subject to change.

What's the peatiest, smokiest scotch?
i love lagavulin, talisker, laphroig, oban, mccallan. what are the other peaty, smokey scotches out there?
Ardbeg, Caol Ila. Not Macallan. I had the Ardbeg Uigeadail at a festival and thought it tasted like licking a campfire (and I like smoky scotch).
Well, technically speaking, the Scotch with the highest concentration of peat is Bruichladdich Octomore, weighing in at 130 ppm (parts per million) of peat phenols. Second would be Ardbeg Supernova at 100 ppm. Those are both quite hard to find and pricey though.
For something more affordable and accessible, you might want to try Ardbeg 10 (or really, any Ardbeg, but the 10 is the best bang for your buck), Bruichladdich Peat or Smokehead.
re: DavidT
I've tried "The Peat Monster" and boy, is it peaty, and I don't mind that, but I found it otherwise thin, rather unbalanced. All peat with not enough support, if you will. JMO.
re: comestible
You may like Caol Ila then, It's a bit stronger than Peat monster and more put together. However, it's more smoke than peat, almost like inhaling a barbecue
re: Icantread
inhaling bbq....sounds good
re: Steve_K
I'll second the Connemara, I search out bars and restaurants that have it.
Ardbeg, Caol Ila, and Springbank are all fantastic! As are Talisker, Oban and Lagavulin. Laphroaig is a bit too motor oily for me, but I love their quarter cask. Octomore is definitely the most peaty! You can smell it from across the room. I love the way it tastes and smells, but I think Supernova is much more interesting. It's got good balance of multiple flavors. Octomore is peat, peat and more peat! Smokehead is tasty too. A little oily. Blackadder's bottling of Peat Reek is fantastic! I think Peat Monster is as monstrous as a mouse. Ditto for Bruichladdich Peat. My latest favorite dram is Ardbeg Corryvrecken, which is neither the peatiest of smokiest, but it is darn tasty!
re: elbopix
Ack, I want some Corryvrecken. You must have taken a trip overseas (or have friends there or live there or something).
I agree with you on Peat Monster, not too monstrous to my tastes.
re: sku
Nope...just got good friends with very good collections. Oh...Corryvrecken....
Check out these collections:
re: TheDescendedLefticleOfAramis
I had my first dram of Talisker just last night. While it was very tasty, I did not find it especially smokey or peaty. It was certainly no where near Laphroig in that regard.
re: DavidT
Was this the 18 year old? ... which I've always found quite distinct.
Peat aside, some guests have found its nature a bit too forward
(i.e. not as "nuanced" and approachable as ... say ... Balvenie Double Wood).
re: TheDescendedLefticleOfAramis
No, I am quite sure it was not the Talisker 18-year old. I am pretty sure it was the standard Talisker, which is probably either 10 or 12 years old.
I vote for Laphroaig 10 year old. It is my favorite. It is certainly smoky, has wonderful peat character with their bogs and water fought over for many years.
Most of Laphroaig's production is used in giving deep base notes to the top blended whiskey brands. This alone tells me Laphroaig has the best smoke and peat character in the industry. If it was not the best, the major brands would place their bets elsewhere.
While certainly a smooth whiskey delivering an awesome liquid smoke and peat taste, it also delivers more. In particular, the 10 year old has a brash and young character to it as well. This is a difficult feat for a single malt and akin to a high wire act without a net. So far Laphroaig has never fallen.
Laphroaig's neighbor Lagavulin on the Isle of Islay, is a poor imitation of Laphroaig. Lagavulin is smoky and peaty somewhat, but pulls its punch, perhaps in an attempt to be both the coolest kid in class as well as the most laid back and refined I think many of us can remember a lot of such schoolyard failures.
For me Laphroaig is the standard, not only for smoke and peat, but also for balance and its fantastic feat of tasting of the sea from which it was born.
There's not really a best or smokiest single malt, since it's an aquired taste and not all taste buds act the same, One can only opine as what's his mos favorite/s smoky single malt, I find Laphroaig as very good but remedy taste like single malt. Lagavulin is in my personal opinion the best smoky single malt, with a terrific after taste.
re: enriqueroman62
What do people think of Bowmore? I just started drinking it--it was my first Scotch with that peat flavor--and it was a revelation.
re: BMartin
I love Bowmore except for the 17 yr, which I bought and can't drink. It tastes bitter and almost spoiled to me. The 15 yr was one of my favorites for a while.
re: BMartin
I was introduced to Bowmore this summer, and really liked it. I tend to like Laphroig, Lagavulin and Talisker. The last counts for me as more peppery than smoky.
re: BMartin
Bowmore is my favorite single malt, and I've tried a whole slew of 'em.
As to the original post, Lagavulin is the peatiest I've ever had, with Talisker not far behind.
I am new to whiskies, and am slowly trying to build up a collection of realy good, peaty examples (I dont realy like unpeated whisky at all) So far I think Lagavulin 16yo is the nicest, most balanced I have found, and BenRiach Curiositas is the most powerfully peaty in taste and smell. Biggest disapointment so far has been Laphroaig Quater Cask. On that note, has anyone tried the Ardmore, and what did they think of it?
re: PeatPete
The standard Ardmore is very nice, lightly peated and sweet. I enjoyed it quite a bit, but it's not the monster that Lagavulin or Laphroaig is.
re: PeatPete
Your trophy should be the limited(?) release Ardbeg Supernova. It is scientifically the peatiest scotch by far and an incredibly elegant sip.
re: Icantread
Trying to line up a bottle for christmas!
re: Icantread
I believe the Supernova loses the peatiest scotch category to the Octomore at 130 ppm. I think the new release is 140 ppm. This is compared to the Supernovas 100 ppm of peatiness. It is not elegant. Haha! If you like peat, the Octomore is like chewing peat or drowning in a peat bog...it's peaty!
re: knightro98
I like the Quater Cask a great deal, looking forward to getting a Laphroaig 10 year old to compare it to. The Laphroaig cask strength is supposed to be something pretty special, but I havent been able to track it down in Australia.
re: knightro98
You should get your hands on some Laphroaig 18! Wonderful!
No one has mentioned Highland Park single malts? I am not a scotch person; my SO is, and so I have tasted many single malts, trying to understand the characteristics he likes. HP came to mind immediately when I read the subject of this thread.
re: souvenir
That strikes me as rather odd - I love Highland Park, but in part because it's more floral and not nearly so peaty as some of the ones mentioned above. Lagavulin, for example - one sip and I feel like I've been upholstered in leather.
Ah, just reread your post - you don't actually drink the stuff yourself. That explains it.
re: BobB
Maybe so. When I said that I am not a single malt drinker doesn't mean that I haven't tried a number of them out of curiosity. Even liquors I don't love, I can still taste and detect differences. I have actually tasted various Highland Parks, as well as other single malts and thought the smoke and peaty notes were very pronounced in the HPs.
Apparently, according to what you write, a HP is not as pronounced as a Lagavulin (or perhaps any of the others previously mentioned).
re: souvenir
I havent tried Highland park, but I have found a fair few reviews that call it Smoky, rather than Peaty. Now I have to find it and try some!
re: PeatPete
People do talk about smoke in HP, but it's very much relative. Compared to many Islays, HP is not smokey or peaty. Compared to many Highlands, it has smoke. But when people are talking about smokey or peaty malts (especially in the context of the "peatiest, smokiest scotch"), the relative-to-Highlands smoke is not usually what they mean.
re: PeatPete
Exactly what I'm talking about. If you're thinking of Laphroaig, Ardbeg, and Lagavulin, and even Bowmore, you're going to have a similar reaction to HP. Although HP is very good (and I personally like HP more than Talisker).

re: souvenir
When someone asks for a peaty malt, I would never think to say Highland Park. I find that it's defining trait is saltiness, but everyone has different taste buds and experience different things.
re: elbopix
I have to agree with you there, everyone's experience with Scotch is unique. I also think that tastes change quite quickly and that your favourite style may just be what you are drinking currently. That said, here are my thoughts. The Highland Park range is great, not a loser in the bunch although I don't ever expect to ever even sniff the 40 year old. The peat is mild though, what it has is tremendous balance and smooth flavour. I don't get very much brine there at all.
Ardbeg 10 is fabulous stuff. Very strong peat and smoke, but again there is very good balance. Laphroaig I find enjoyable only in small doses and on particular occasions. I keep a bottle around, but I expect I will still have some left when I have run out out of several others. I like the Bowmore 18 quite a bit, much better than the 12. Time has rounded off its rough edges, but I find that Bowmore doesn't do it for me as much as it once did.
Talisker on the other hand really does these days. I love the syrupy sweetness that plays off the light peat smoke. Absolutely delicious.
Also great, but not a Scotch, or even a single malt, is Nikka "Whiskey From the Barrel". If you like Highland Park you will certainly like this. Get some if you happen to come across it.
re: Tinfoilhat
Ditto on the Nikka!
The Octomore II Beast 2004 (Bruichladdich) barley was 167ppm (method HPLC), as written in the book Peat, Smoke and Spirit, and as shown on the Bruichladdich website. No other known claims have been made to date that surpass that level.
The Ardbeg Supernova is reported at 100ppm. There are countless other specialty runs, mixes, and variations from year to year, but nothing yet tops 167. Infusing peat into the malt is a very imprecise procedure when you start to get up into the big numbers. Hence you will not find anywhere near the same consistency in ppm from year to year for Scotches north of 50ppm. Octomore is all over the place. The latest bottle they released was pegged at 140. Last year I believe it was 130. As a matter of reference heavy phenol for Scotch is 35ppm, medium is 20ppm, and light is 15ppm. ("Unpeated" barley still contains phenols, but only from .5 to 3ppm)
Note that the ppm value traditionally given by the manufactures is actually of the kiln dried malt before grinding, mashing, and distilling. The measurable phenol level goes down from 30-50% by the time it's distilled (the "new make"), and down even more with ageing. As one example, Laphroaig barley is 40ppm, new spirit is 25ppm, phenol drops to 8-10 ppm in the 10yo, and down to 6ppm in 30yo.
I've seen Ardbeg malt rated at 54ppm, Longrow (Springbank) at 50ppm, and Laphroig, Lagavulin & Port Charlotte (Bruichladdich) all at 40ppm – so those are the balance of your "top tier" peaty Scotches. (Those numbers are rounded - and vary from year to year.) There are also blends, as mentioned by others here. I would add "Big Peat Islay Blended Whisky", which I recently had, and it was an extravaganza of flavors, if somewhat orthogonal.
Octomore (Bruichladdich) is the reigning champ, but in reality Ardbeg has three expressions that would be in the top 5 (Supernova, Uigeadail, and the Beist – and maybe even their standard expression 10. Indeed all of their Scotches seem to fit up into the top 8 or 10. I've seen many authoritative people claim them as "the" most peaty distillery (although in the same breath unanimously agreed NOT as great an overall profile, or end resultant Scotch, as say, Lagavulin or Laphroig at comparable ages). I heard Ralfy (I think) refer to Laphroig as "The Goth god of them all" – which is spot on. In the face of everything mentioned so far, I think Laphroig has the largest peat mindshare. Their Scotch profile isolates the peat like no other Scotch mentioned, or imagined - particularly the 10yo. (Some would say to a fault. Some go further and discount Laphroig by saying that their Scotch was actually designed wholly to be sold to blenders to add "Islay" to the product, vs. – say – a much more rounded, balanced, and "well crafted" Lagavulin). But they all sell Scotch to blenders, so it's a double edged sword. Then Lagavulin became the biggest thing since Johnny Walker – and that REALLY made people hate them (the rock'n roll sellouts.) Lots of hemming and hawing on these issues – mostly by people who don't have any idea what they are actually talking about. ("Long live the X's – Death to the O's")
The point I would make is that the ppm metrics provided by manufacturers do not account for the fact that the addition of peat related compounds can be achieved at every stage along the way of the process (or not) in the form of water: washing, mashing, and most particularly using a peated pond water source to cut to bottling strength.
There are literally thousands of design and production decisions and factors (and wee land wights) involved in the process to make the end result spirit – irrespective to the base malt ppm measurement, as anyone who has tasted all these Scotches can attest to. The end result is not a direct correlation to the original malt ppm number. Also, there are several hundred different molecules in Scotch. I suspect there is considerable "drift" in what people think of, and what they are identifying as "peat" (sphagnum) in their Scotch (phenol, cresols, xylenols, ehtylphenol, guaiacol, etc.)
I'm a relative newbie to single malts myself but have been taking more of an interest in recent years (I've always loved bourbon and rye/blends), and it is so fascinating to see how people's tastes and interpretations vary.
My very first single malt purchase on my way home from Scotland in '08 was Talisker 10 and it remains my favourite to this day. Talisker 10 continues to be my benchmark for peaty drams and I consider it a firecracker in that respect.
Bowmore 12 is another enjoyable bottle I regularly stock (very affordable and tasty). I find Bowmore to be more "smokey" than peaty if that makes sense, but it's certainly one I group together with other peated scotches.
I don't consider any offering from Macallan (traditional sherry or fine oak) to be peaty at all; quite the opposite. Back around Christmas time I sampled Lagavulin 16 for the first time and must say I couldn't believe this was one of the Big 3 peat boys everyone talked about. I really didn't notice that much of a peat punch as expected. I have to do a follow up tasting on Lagavulin 16, or maybe try their 12yo cast strength.
About a month ago Laphroaig 18 started selling in our state controlled liquor stores here in Ontario and I picked up a bottle. I'm sure the 10yo (especially cask strength 10yo) is the real peat slugger in this family, which I've yet to try. But this 18yo from Laphroaig definitely has some swing and easily lays out my Talisker. I really enjoy this Laphroaig 18. The 10yo is definitely on my list.
The other big peat scotch on my list had been Ardbeg - the 10 and/or Corryvechan, the latter is or will soon be available here as well (but is quite pricey). Because I have some relatives set to visit soon from the UK I've asked them to bring me something different and not readily available here in Ontario. The Ardbeg's will wait - what's I'm looking forward to trying is Juro Prophecy. I've heard this is a good peated dram. Will have to see.
I can't imagine how enjoyable a maxed out peat scotch would taste – probably not that good. I certainly wouldn't want to chew a hunk of peat in my mouth lol. The drams people have been talking about above all sound like nice, well rounded peaty drams.
re: GraefenberG
Favorites: Ardbeg 10, Ardbeg Uigeadail, Laphroaig Quarter Cask, Bruichladdich 10 (The Laddie), Kilchoman spring release.
If you like smoke and cocktails, not just Scotch neat or with a cube of ice, then try a PX lounge cocktail called the "Sherlock Holmes". You can find the Lapsang Souchong tea online. This is a cocktail for the Islay fan and is like smoking without smoking. At PX, I think they added a dash or two of homemake lemon bitters.
re: DrinkinLife
This recipe surprises me. Piling more smoke from Lapsang Souchong on top of Laphroaig seems like a bad idea, not because I don't like smoke, but because it would make a one-note cocktail. I would think it would be more interesting to combine that tea with something unexpected, like a molasses-rich rum. Of course I haven't tried it, so I may well be completely wrong on both fronts. I have the ingredients; I'll experiment.
BTW, I demonstrate this concept of non-redundant ingredients in the Bernet Frankenstein -- a wonderful cocktail if you like both Fernet and Islay.

re: EvergreenDan
Tonight I made half-recipes of the Sherlock Holmes and a rum variant:
1 1/2 oz Laphroaig Qtr Cask or El Dorado 15
1/2 oz honey
1 oz Lapsang Souchong (still warm)
3/4 oz Lemon
Since the tea was warm, I figure that I got the extra 1/2 of water missing from the honey syrup as melt water.
Both drinks are pretty good. The original is certainly smokier and full of depth from the Islay scotch. It is certainly a challenging drink but no more so than the scotch it's based on. Contemplative and rich with a lingering tart astringency. The lemon is integrated.
The rum variant is certainly more accessible, but that's because the base ingredient is so easy to like. The lemon is not well integrated, and seems at odds with the smoke of the tea. I would normally drink Lapsang Souchong with a touch of milk, so the contrast with lemon in the absence of the scotch's peat is a bit off-putting. Interestingly, the honey comes through after the lemon, but in the scotch original is apparent on the initial sip. If I were to try again, I might think of an Old Fashioned variation with LS, rather than a rum sour with LS.
Overall I have to eat my previous post. I prefer the scotch original. It's a nice cocktail.

re: EvergreenDan
Glad you liked it. Think the original proportion were 2 of tea, 1 of scotch, and equal parts honey syrup and lemon, both .75. Defiantly a late fall and winter tipple! Evergreendan, maybe we need to now theorize on a Dr. James Waston variant and call it a Watson. What would a Englishman who serveved as a doctor in Afganistan and then join Holmes drink?
re: ncyankee101
Hi ncyankee, I don't mean to sound rude so please don't misinterpret - no guesses needed, it was the Kilchoman 5 year old and it was my bottle! I like Islay malts above all and like many others here rate Lagavulin, Laproiag - Talisker is my "everyday" choice and there are other Islay malts that two of our supermarkets sell as under their own brand that are just as good but' once I tried the Kilchoman...
Give it a try and let me know what you think.
re: Zairs
I guess you misunderstood me - Kilchoman has used two different sources of malt to make their Scotch.
Port Ellen closed in 1983 but still supplies maltings to all the Islay distilleries. Kilchoman also does their own maltings, but the peat level is 25 ppm vs 56 for the malt they use from Port Ellen.
I was just guessing from your friend's description that you have the more heavily peated version - I am not sure how it would be labeled.
Of course it's also possible it tasted very smoky because of the age, phenol levels drop with aging and a 5 yr will taste smokier than a 10+ year old.
re: ncyankee101
Sorry, I'm with you now. The one I'm talking about is labeled 2006 Vintage The first Five Year Old. I was merely offering my (humble) opinion as to the original question of which was the peatiest, smokiest scotch.
Although no longer available it is, as yet, not unobtainable nor unaffordable so give it a try if you can... and enjoy.
I've just ordered a bottle in time for Christmas!
re: Zairs
Sounds tempting but I just ordered two bottles I have had on my list for a while, Ardbeg Uigeadail and Aberlour A'bunadh. A $74 bottle is just not in my budget at the moment, and I have another bottle I have heard excellent things about that is next in line next time I order, Springbank 10 year.
Laphroaig, Ardbeg, and Lagavulin are the three classic peaty whiskys. Geographically, all three distilleries are neighbors along the southern shores of Islay. If you ever visit the island of smoke and peat, you can easily hit all three in a day. I highly recommend all three.
I've had Laphroaig 10, 10 Cask strength, 18, Quarter cask, Triple wood, and the special casks at the distillery. These are AWESOME for any friends of Laphoraig! (marketing!)
I've had the current full range of Ardbeg. If I had to choose, Ardbeg Uigeadail is my personal fave.
I still need to try the Lagavulin 12 which is produced at cask strength!
re: roguefrog
I finally opened my bottle of Uigeadail, and I agree it is outstanding - such an interesting blend of peat, smoke, and sweetness, I get new flavors with every sip. Someone I know said it would be a bargain at twice the $60 I paid for it, and I agree - though at that price point I wouldn't be buying it.
What a great post - still coming up early in search results, and still getting replies! Cheers to that.
As far as I'm concerned the top 2 are Laphroaig and Lagavulin - both have a cask strength at 10 and 12 yrs respectively, and those get my nods as choice. BUT, I will say this: while a splash of water, or cube(s) of ice are recommended, for the peat lover, Lagavulin shines on it's own, yet still through either addition. The Laphroaig on the other hand has all it's smolder put out and is better near neat. But let's all agree to this: you don't buy cask strength to just water it down. Defeats the purpose. :)
You can't miss with either though!
re: CoolHandLuk
There is something about that extra iodine kick that Laphroaig has that does it for me. I actually like the 10 better than the quarter cask.
If you're fairly new to Scotch and want a blended, Johnny Walker Black Label, though the smoky taste is mixed with a bit of sweetness. If you want a true single malt from a local establishment (I'm in the U.S.), I like Talisker. Laphroig is good, too. Haven't tried Glenmorangie yet. That's next. I had a bottle of Ardbeg 10, and, for me, I had to let it swirl across the taste buds for a bit before swallowing. It has a wonderful peaty taste that is preceded by "Band Aid". I am an American and new to Scotch myself, so no offense to the more experienced palates here.
re: bruava
Johnny Walker also does "Double Black" which is definitely smokier than regular Black Label. Other smoky blended scotches that are cheaper than Double Black are Black Bottle and Black Grouse - right now I think Black Grouse is the best of the smoky blends that I've mentioned here.
re: kagemusha49
I have bought several bottles of Black Bottle over the years and just haven't gotten the peat smoke.
Laph 10 is my favorite followed by Ardbeg 10. Ardbeg 10 is supper smokey (like eating a camp fire) but the Laph 10 has that extra Iodine punch that just does it for me.
re: bruava
I don't think you will find any of the Glenmorangie single-malts, which are from the Highlands, exhibit any of the smokiness common to the single-malts from the western isles of Scotland.
I used to love "The Smokey Peaty One" from Jon, Mark & Robbo, before they went out of business. I was crushed.
I apologize in advance if this offends any high dollar scotch drinkers, but lately I've found nothing smokier than Finlaggan, available at Trader Joe's. It's about $18 a bottle, crazy cheap, but so good!
re: Bliss313
Wow - I wondered what happened to the "The Smokey Peaty One". I have one unopened bottle left. Try Black Bottle.
re: Tripeler
I found Laph 10 to have the strongest 3 some, "Peat, smoke & iodine. I think Ardbeg 10 has the most smoke.
I've just finished a 10 y.o. bottle of Ardbeg, and I must say, this is the peatiest, smokiest scotch I have had the pleasure of indulging in. I am reminded of the smelliest, most mud-soaked, seaweed infused, leathery mongrel dog ever as I swirl this luscious temperament into the very guts of my taste buds. Why does it taste so...good? I cannot comprehend it, it is beyond verbal understanding. I only know that I love it. And if you love peat and smoke, you will too.

Its funny with Ardbeg 10 or Laph 10 it seems folks either love them or hate them.
re: ncyankee101
Love them too. Very different from everything else.
re: jdarko
Ardbeg 10 or Laphroaig 10. The Ardbeg 10 is straight campfire smoke. The Laphroaig 10 is heavy smoke with an iodine bite.
re: spatrob
Went to a Bruichladdich tasting a few nights ago, conducted by the Man himself, Jim McEwan. The Octomore 6.1 was on as was the 5yr old Port Charlotte at 40 ppm. The smoke character of the Octomore is not 4 times more intense than the P.C. Sure the 167 ppm hits you between the eyes. Once you let your senses settle down there is balance and some subtle notes to it. Having said that the expression of the night was Black Art 3.1, pity about the price!
re: alko54
Taste like hearing is a logarithmic sense, to "double" a sensation requires 10x the concentration. Quadrupling peat concentration would result in about a 60% increase in the sensation of taste.
re: alko54
I was at a similar tasting recently and agree that the Port Charlotte and Octomore were, to my tastes, close in smoke character. Too much for me. It just overloads the senses and I can't make anything else out. Glad we tasted the Black Art first. I'm too cheap to drop over $250 on a bottle though.
Maybe some day this love affair people have with peat will grow on me like aggressively hopped IPAs have over the years. For now, I'll stick with bourbon.
had a black loch dhu at the cigar bar in the sheraton boston in the 1990s, I can't imagine there'd be anything more peaty and smoky than that. my friends didn't like this scotch, but i thought it was great with the cigar
Tried them all and for me plain old Laphroig 10 year is hands down the peatiest and one of the least costly. More expensive versions of Laphroig are smoother and lose some peatiness. All the others are likewise less intense. Also love park city utahs own High West "campfire" whiskey. not sure you can get that outside of Park City but if you are ever there it's a must try
re: Jgcjr
Campfire is nationally distributed though I think supplies are limited, I have a bottle I got in South Carolina but haven't opened yet.
I agree about the Laphroaig 10, and it makes an excellent mixer, but I like the added dimensions in other expressions such as the Triplewood and Quarter cask.
