Top reviews for Lagavulin 8 Year Old:

― I think this is my favorite whiskey, very elegant, tastes amazing, the smoke is beautifully mixed with no overpowering flavors. The 16 was just too overpowering with smoke flavor for me, it was like octomore which is very smoky but has so many robust flavors that don’t over power each other. But the 16 was just plan smoke in my opinion. The 8 is so balanced with the flavors that I would chose this over any other whiskeys in my arsenal. It is best enjoyed when cooking, just have a nice dram in a glencairen glass and enjoy the smoky sweat flavors while making your favorite meal. 9.5 from me. There’s always room for improvement, but this Islay will give you great value for the flavors in the bottle. Please try this.

― Fantastically smoky!

― Smoky, caramel
