Lagavulin 8 Year

Chocolatey, a bit briney, smoke at the end

Smoke city. Again. Wish I’d had this closer to the 16 to compare. But wow the nos is filled with smoke peat. Vanilla. Sweet oak. Hints of cooked asparagus. Flavors are much more mild than the aroma. Smoke is not shy. It’s there throughout. But around it I have vanilla. Caramel. Citrus. Finishes medium length with oak notes the longer.

Very peaty and smoky. One and done.

Geproefd bij Lagavulin Distillery. De 8 ruikt meer naar de omgeving van de distilleerderij. Lekker zoet, smaakvolle afdronk. Net zo lekker als de 16, op een andere manier.
