  • Lagavulin 16 Year

    Single Malt — Islay, Scotland

    Reviewed March 30, 2019 (edited April 23, 2019)

    Next to my "standard for Scotch" Laphroaig 10, this is not as good. Less peat. More brine. Odd mouth feel. Still good when in the right mood for it. Meat and salt are at the forefront. Not as good but costs more means I probably won't get another bottle. But hey, it was a gift and I'm not complaining.

    I'm an Islay guy, but I'm a sucker for anything Skye. Isle of Skye is my favorite board game, even. Odd, I know. Anyway. The Scotch is good. Pepper punch and salt/brine dominate. Lots of burn. Iodine and bacon come next. Peat/smoke in the finish, but not huge, and the iodine lingers on the finish. I still prefer Laphroaig, but this is a good change-up.
    65.0 USD per Bottle

    Not a tequila guy, but when you need it, this is good stuff. Purchased on sale for a good value.

    Exactly what I want in Orange liquor. Too sweet for me to sip, but it's usually just an accent in something else for me. Wife likes it in her diet ginger ale, but I need something to cut the sweetness. Still, I use it in a ton of mixed drinks with rum or vodka.

    Good for mixing if you want a golden rum, which I prefer to clear or spiced. That's about it.

    This stuff makes me think I should drink more rum. Sweet and rich. After Bacardi, this seems like heaven, and Bacardi isn't awful. This isn't a mixing rum, it's for sipping, but at the price I don't feel awful mixing it, either.

    Neutral. That's what I want in Vodka. Certainly not an expert on the spirit, and I usually only mix with it.
