“Love this scotch. Lagavulin 16 is my all time favorite ($ for ml). This is clearly not the same scotch, well crafted younger dram. Do not second think buying this, get it before it sells out. ”

Description

Yet another cracking 12-year-old limited edition Lagavulin from Diageo's Special Releases, the twelfth of the series. Vatted from refill American oak casks before being bottled at natural cask strength, this Kildalton coast classic is simply excellent.

This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Nutty with integrated citrus (lemon iced tea?), mossy peat and soot.

Palate

Big but well balanced with cocoa, seaweed and sweet, well-barbecued vegetable kebabs.

Finish

Oily smoke and cocoa.

Overall

Excellent, as expected. A flavoursome, chocolatey, smoky treat.

Stick with Lagavulin 16

Lag 16 is my favorite malt, followed by Talisker 10, ardbeg oogie, and highland park 12. Always willing to try a new malt to expand my list of favorites, I sprang $90 for this cask strength lag 12. Could not be more disappointed. Has NONE of the elegance and complexity of it's older brother. Very medicinal, with 60 percent of the lag flavor profile, but 30 percent like laphroig 12s in your face phenol. Doesn't hold up to water at all, losing structure even with a few drops. The most disappointing malt in the last give years, a poor choice even at $40 a bottle. Had a hard time finishing it. Harder on the body than most quality spirits.

Stop reading, go get one

Honestly, why are you still reading reviews? Go get one. It's the king whiskey. Get one before we run out. I didn't get one fast enough last year. Not gonna happen this year.
