Scottish Gaelic is rendered as uisge-beatha, which means literally "water of life". As for Islay Malts I would recommend anything by Laphroaig, but then it's such a personal thing, all tastes vary.

Haha! Whoops - my bad! In retrospect I should have googled it before replying xD I'll certainly ad a Laphroaig to my list xD My Uncle is into his whiskies as well, so I might see if I can grab him a bottle for his xmas; we usually share out any spirits we get at christmas (you might say we're always in good spirits!

)

Ardbeg Uiguedail is a heavenly Islay malt worth looking out for. I'll add a vote for Laphroaig, particularly the unfiltered cask
