Hud1865

Lagavulin 16 Year

Single Malt — Islay, Scotland

Reviewed December 1, 2017 (edited October 21, 2024)
5.0
5.0 out of 5 stars
It's raining and cold outside a bar in Sofia Bulgaria. There's a good if mainstream selection on offer but I go for this. Awesome, every time I try it I wonder if anything else tastes like this. Different in many ways to Talisker, Bowmore, Laphroiag, Octomore. I won't bother with my view of the taste as others have done it so much better but I'm astonished how I'm affected every time I drink it - I expect something very good, it delivers excellence! You can make different tasting whisky of course, but in this category it is unsurpassed. A stunning magical mixture that could be priced at double or triple and still walk away with the prize. A desert island top 5! Hud :)
