Lagavulin Distillery

Aged 16 Years Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 1816

This is a great tipple as the weather cools down in the Southern Hemisphere. From Islay with plenty of peat and smokiness. A maritime seaweed note. Some say Laphroaig is even more peaty but for me, the jury is still out on that one. β€” 2 days ago

I find the peat on this one very pleasant.

A. H. Hirsch 16 years old Reserve Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Son’s birthday so pulled out something special. While I think the hype on this is over the top, I managed to get a bottle from Australia so that mitigated some of the craziness. It’s really delicious. Not over powered like many of the cask strength bottles now. Sweet,approachable and his choice over the scotch β€” a month ago

The nose is fantastic. A butterscotch/caramel that is just so inviting. It’s not think though on the palate. Might even argue it’s thin.
