I havent had Ardbeg for a while, but I don’t remember bandaids… Everyone has slightly different tastebuds tho.
I personally can’t eat olives, ever. For some reason the taste is overwhelming to me, faintly like gasoline. However I love olive oil and cook with it all the time.
The phenol scale is something that exists too, but I might be wrong on the tasting like peat part. Octomore is the highest peated scotch I know of, there are others too, but its off the charts on phenol scale. But- it doesnt taste as peaty as some Laphroaigs Ive had. Id say I remember hay more than anything, alfalfa.
