Yes, it is one of my favorites. There is a long generic whisky thread that has been going on for a few years. My favorites are the Islays in general. Probably in order Laphroaig/Ardbeg (tie for first), Lagavulin and then Bowmore. But I like them all a lot. When I first started drinking single malts I hated Laphroaig and drank mostly MacAllan. But as I drank more varieties and became more used to them I have graduated to the more peaty, smoky malts.

In JW I like the Double Black. I think it is a good buy. Not as good as the malts above I mentioned in my opinion but generally about half or even a third the price.
