Lagavulin single malt

Thanks to adsantos13 I got a line on Lagavulin 16 year old single malt scotch for only $49.99 a bottle. So four of us chipped in and bought a case of imho is the best single malt there is. If you have ever had it you know what I mean. It's smooth and has a strong peat and smoke flavor. It is my favorite of all the Islay scotch and that's saying a lot. Thanks again adsantos13!

Re: Lagavulin single malt

No prob. Texasbadbob...always happy to help a fellow Scotch drinker

I love me some Lagavulin and believe me when I saw that price in the store I did a quadruple take and almost got whiplash.

If anyone else wants to order some, they are still selling it at $49.99. It can be found at Astor Wine and Spirits

Oh, damn, just noticed they are selling Highland Park 12 for 36.99! Looks like Ill be heading down there tomorrow...

That is a great price. Generally it goes for closer to $80.

Re: Lagavulin single malt

I actually prefer something substantial that will stand-up to a smoky/peaty single malt. The Punch SS2 comes to mind. I've had these two together and find that the tannic, slightly woody-sweet strength of the Punch SS2 holds-up well against the Lagavulin. JMHO, though.

Re: Lagavulin single malt

Yep. Lagavulin is a very good single malt from the Islay region and it goes great with CAO MX2's.

I still prefer single malts from the Speyside region though...
