Lagavulen 12 was my favorite scotch in the world when it cost $40 a bottle. But then the distillery had a fire, and the the twelve year is gone. The sixteen is nice, but those extra years bring the price up to closer to 60. Which I just can't afford. Which is why I was SO EXCITED when I was given a bottle for my birthday. Better yet, the bottle was from someone who had opened it and hated the overwhelming iodine, burning dirt and seaweed notes. But those are the best parts!
It is good to have you back home Lagavulin. I hope you never leave.
