Lagavulin Distillery

Aged 16 Years Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Apparently one of the oldest Distillery sites in Scotland. Located by the sea on the Isle of Islay this receives the slowest distillation of any Islay malt, then spends 16 years in old oak casks before being bottled. This is very pungent, peaty and smoky. One of my favourite single malts. — 2 months ago

Bob,
You should go to Islay. Lagavulin and Laphroaig and are only a couple of km down the road from each other
It’s a long way from Australia…I don’t want to imagine the flight connects.

@Jamie Lauder Thanks Jamie. I love Laphroaig as well - a toss up which is the most peaty. I’ve visited Talisker on the Isle of Skye which is the spiritual home of the Clan Donald (McDonald). Also had a tour of Glenmorangie over on the east coast.

Hibiki Japanese Harmony Blended Whisky

Hibiki Highball from the master at the Apollo. Been two years since I’ve been here but it felt like yesterday. Literally nothing has changed. Must stop if you are in Tokyo. Feel free to go to the bar Milo next door and have a drink of the “Mr Norm” bottle that I had to buy in order to get a drink. Keep in mind all of these places max out at 8 people. I kinda stressed them out coming in with eight but played the “remember me” card and picture from my iPhone ;) — 10 months ago

Just wonderful, caramel oak notes, cold smoke on the nose.
Japanese Whisky is at a high point in the market presently, if you bought early (5-10Y ago) you're sitting pretty now 😉

Laphroaig

10 Years Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 1815

Had this bottle for a long time already. And thought it to be a basic peaty Islay. But it is a very fine rounded, bit sweet and not too agressive. Better get a new one. — 7 years ago

The French Oak Reserve 15 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

A little spicey, not as smooth because of the cognac barrels. Slight fruit, a little bitter on aftertaste. No peat. $85 at target (a bit pricey) might get it if it were in the $50s. — 4 years ago
