I just enjoyed a bottle of lagavulin over New Years with a good friend. It is great stuff. Try to catch the special on 60 minutes featuring the late journalist visiting Islay to tour the 8 distilleries and experience the culture of the Island. Very very interesting segment (at least to me)!

Ron Swanson from parks and rec drinks lagaluvin. My friend is a huge fan of the show. When he comes down from out of town that is what we drink. Good stuff

YES YES YES

The 16 was my first real Scotch and has been my favorite since.

For me, Islay is the Glashutte of the Scotch world.
