| Tasting Notes |
| Oliver Klimek | Nose: Intense, the classic Lagavulin nose with smoked bacon and sherry -
Palate: More peaty than you would expect from the nose. Strong sherry, needs some time in the glass, then it gets more complex -
Finish: Rather sweet at the beginning and smoky at the end. -
Overall: More sherry than the standard 16yo that is not quite reached |
