Lagavulin Scotch Single Malt 8 Year |
Wine Enthusiast 90 points - TOP 100 SPIRITS OF 2017 - Look for a straw hue and unmistakably peaty, smoky scent. On the palate, fruity sweetness leads at first, quickly morphing into a billow of pungent peat smoke. Quite drying, and finishes fiery. Water tamps down the alcohol heat and brings more orchard fruit forward. Released in 2016 to honor Alfred Barnard, considered to be the first whiskey writer, as part of the 200th anniversary of Lagavulin..Kara Newman, December/2017
A soothing light texture, with a magnificently full on Lagavulin taste that’s somehow even bigger than you expect; sweet, smoky and warming, with a growing, smoky pungency, then dry, with more smoke. Charred, with minty, dark chocolate. Beautifully balanced midpalate then salty, oven-charred baked potato skins and smoke. Water rounds things, the taste still mighty yet more succulent, sweeter, spicier and now tongue-tingling, mint-fresh and warming.
A clean, long and smoky finish – subtle, minted smoke, chocolate tannins and finally warming, leaving the palate dry as sweet smoke lingers on the breath.

Almost as good as the Lagavulin 16.
This one is great and almost as good as the Lagavulin 16. And is at a better price. Great smoke and peat taste.

Lagavulin 8 (Not anniversary edition)
Thought I was purchasing the 200th anniversary edition but recieved the regular edition instead. Apparantly there was a mistake on the website. Good whiskey but wish I would have received the correct bottles. Called and the website was then fixed, just wish I would have been compensated better. I was offered the opportunity to return the bottles “for credit” or to keep them and get $10 off the shipping. So basically, they only charged me $10 for shipping instead of $20 for the WRONG bottles... definitely have had better experiences. Giving 2 stars for the shopping experience but would have given 4 stars just for the whisky alone.
