Member Reviews and Ratings of Lagavulin 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Eduardo,
Peat and smoke are just not my favorite flavors in whisky. Good to try and to understand the flavor, but not to buy it again.
Ryan,
Heavy on the smoke and peat.
Logan,
To be fair, I am not a huge Islam fan. When they say smoke and peat, they mean it. I like a little smoke, but this was completely overwhelming for me. If you like a more balanced scotch, look elsewhere. If smoke is your thing, you'll love it.
Clayton,
Pure smokeness love, a lot of character.
Will,
If there was ever a 10 this is it! Smoky, peaty and medicinal, with a superb balance of sweetness.
