Lagavulin Distillers Edition
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed June 24, 2023 (edited June 26, 2023)The nose composed of sweet fruity smoke and beachside briny breeze, like smoking a nice aromatic pipe blend by the ocean. The palate is sweet and salty, fruity and savory, the contrast yet balance is stunning. The scotch had a medium to long finish but low and subtle warmth, like the steady glow of a charcoal of a fire died down. -
Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed December 30, 2022 (edited December 31, 2022)Nose: The nose is fruity specifically with stone fruits like apricot and plum. Summertime notes of coconut and sunscreen along with sugarcane complete the rum cask expectations. Taste: The palate matches the nose, fruity and sweet. It is rum-like, but not overly so, with an additional taste of pears and plums. Finish: The finish is swift, sweet, with what remains being some barrel spice. -
