Profile: What Makes Lagavulin 8 Year Old Special
Whisky journalist Alfred Barnard visited the island of Islay and the Lagavulin distillery around 1880 and was delighted both by the place and by the 8-year-old he was served – he described the whisky as “exceptionally fine”. The 8-year-old Lagavulin matures in European and American refill oak casks – an incredibly complex single malt, sweet, smoky and warming.
Tasting Notes: What Lagavulin 8 Year Old Tastes Like
- Nose: Soft on the nose with pure, fresh tones – traces of milk chocolate and lemon, behind that a combination of tea and smoke – the closeness of the sea and fresh grain
- Palate: Pleasantly silky mouthfeel, distinctly a Lagavulin now! Sweet and smoky – the smoke grows sharper and more pronounced, the sweetness recedes
- Finish: Very long and smoky in the finish

roh ,frisch, pfeffrig, laga - rauch ,einer für aufs maul ...aber mit klasse !
dem muss man eine zweite chance einräumen bevor man zu schnell urteilt ;)
seine echte klasse entwickelt er erst nach ein paar drams . . . .und dann wird man nach bestellen . am besten hier ;)

Ein junger Lagavulin, der vom Geschmack her an den 12y erinnert. Dieses Jubläums Bottling hat seine Daseins Berechtigung und ich hoffe dass der Lagavulin 8 weiter produziert wird

spannender Vergleich zum "normalen" 16-jährigen

Ist interessant aber für den preis eher zum sammeln als zum trinken gibt es besserer in der Preisklasse

Exzellenter junger Lagavulin. Sicher fehlt ihm die Tiefe und Reife des 12 oder 16 - aber wen stört das schon, wenn man diesen Malt (endlich) mal in seiner jungen und trotzdem vollen Schönheit erleben darf? Klasse Zeug, vielleicht mit etwas Vorsicht zu genießen, wenn man sonst nur den 16er kennt.

Kräftiger und gradliniger als der 16er, trotz des Alters nicht unreif
