The Islay representative in the 'Classic Malts' series is a deep, dry and exceptionally peaty bruiser. Probably the most pungent of all Islay malts, Lagavulin is not for the faint-hearted but inspires fanatical devotion in its many followers.

Tasting Notes by David Broom for Whisky Advocate

Comment
Lagavulin is a classic example of how smoke isn't a blunt instrument that covers everything in a fog, but an element that works with all the flavours produced in distillation and maturation. Lagavulin isn't 'smokey,' its peat moves into a weird territory of Lapsang Souchong tea and pipe tobacco, fishboxes and kippers. It smells of laurel and light cereal, but is always sweet. The palate shows more creosote, with hints of kelp and a little touch of iodine. Complex.

The peatiness is beautifully balanced against some caramel sweetness, rich, smooth and delicious. Even my better half who is no whiskey lover absolutely loved this neat with a little ice.

Absolutely wonderful. I love Islay whiskey but this one was my 4th Islay variation and remains my favorite. Every sip I take is a complete experience of its own and provides a level of complexity that would probably exhaust my character limit in my review. If you know you like peat in your whiskey, just buy it. It's absolutely a no brainer.

Simply the best! No burn, smooth and taste extraordinary. Smokes 18 year old distillers that charge 2-3x as much. You will LOVE!
