Sarcastic Bairn Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Can't say I've tried it, however The Lagavulin 8yr is on at £38 in Tesco today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite good if you like peat, but I think no sherry casks (or fewer) in this one anyway so last I tried it was much more peppery than the 16 and nowhere near as rich. It's stronger as well. A robust half. It's also near £20 cheaper than usual retail at that price so if you like Lagavulin or want to try it get in about it.

HeartsOfficialMoaner Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Just bought this. Very spicy, very nice. Proudly distilled by hand in copper pot stills in the rolling foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia by the trail of the lonesome pine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannot be judged by the neck pour for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the tungston weasel Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Had a dram of my Talisker 12 tonight and can't imagine 6 more years made it less delicious . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superwell87 Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Probably my favourite malt... Highland park runs it close though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.Aye.R Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 The more Ardnamurchan I try, the more excited I get by them. Nearly through a bottle of 07.21:05 (belive this means July 2021, release 5). The QR code on the bottle tells you a lot about Fermentation, cut points, cask make up etc. Really detailed. Its calmed down now with the flippers and bottles are still freely available. Highly recommended folks. The tasting notes on the whisky exchange are absolutely bang on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
