Lagavulin Offerman Edition 11 Year

Smokey bog fires on the sea coast is what my nose picks up. With a lingering hint of sweet heather at the end of the scent. Rich smooth honey on the first sip with the smoke and peat traveling leisurely down my palate. Rich and moneyed like fine leather goods. Treat yourself to this excellent scotch and please pair with lots of meat. Bacon wrapped everything!!!!

The nose is somewhat sweet with a bit of smokiness. The palate is smokier than I would have thought from the nose, and there is a bitterness that goes with the sweetness, like a bitter dark chocolate. The finish is quite long, and the sweetness seems a bit more evident in the finish. Overall, I like this Offerman edition more than the Lagavulin Offerman Charred Oak.

Potent but has a good linger
