Lagavulin 30
Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 52.6%
Score: 94 Points
This whisky sold for around $400 when it hit the market and was snapped up quickly. It may be available at some retailers, and is well worth the cost. The nose is dry and dusty, and reminds me of my grandfather’s pipe tobacco. It also reveals notes of old leather, wood stain and varnish, and a slight hint of peat. The taste builds on dried apricots and apples at the beginning to a solid smokiness, resinous and thick with a spicy kick on the tongue at the end. The finish is campfire smoke and pumpkin pie. Outstanding!
