Man it's a trip to look back at this one and see how far my whisky cabinet has come 😁

[@christinecamley]

This is my favourite Islay scotch! It was my gateway into peated whisky and I can never go wrong with a Lagavulin! Lagavulin is elegant and delicious! I don't find it overly smoky at all! Classy, beautiful, well balanced!! 🙂

[@McIntyresMalts]

Couldn't agree more! One I continually come back to 😊

[@johnzajac9849]

I purchased a bottle of this whisky and found it to be outstanding! What a gem!

[@McIntyresMalts]

It's got a reputation for a reason! Big fan 🥃

[@samclark9892]

Nice review, I love this dram, well put together with the smoke and the fruit. One for sipping on a deserted beach on a cool evening. I once enjoyed this with a cigar which brought out a richer fruity note with the smoke in the backround.

[@McIntyresMalts]

Sounds good to me! Thanks for watching 🙂

Hey Wade…. Been following your channel for a few months now…. Just had a look at your back catalogue and spotted this and decided to have a Laga16 along with you. I love your reviews! You were already really good at this back then! Laga16 was my entry whisky some years back…. I bought a Micheal Jackson Guide to Single Malt and LOOVED the description of the finish: Hug from a bear…. 😂 That’s when i knew i like this whisky stuff. Looking forward to seeing your upcoming content mate! Cheers!

[@McIntyresMalts]

Aw thank you mate, appreciate the kind words and you checking out my OG videos! How good is this whisky stuff!? 🥃🙏

[@jimmymidson5393]

Man, I cracked mine and listened to this along with my tasting. Spot on all the way through. I’m so stoked with this purchase

[@McIntyresMalts]

My man! Thanks for the love brother 🥃

[@jose9rinconin]

Bonfire smoke, medicine and sherry, what a strange mix... But what a good taste all that integration of elements has😂 . Great review, greetings Wade.

[@McIntyresMalts]

Greeting Jose! Love a dram of Lagavulin 16 🥃

[@aaronedgerton1843]

What a classic!! 😁👍👍

[@McIntyresMalts]

Indeed it is! Such a shame they just upped the price 😞

[@Dai240888]

Hey Wade love your vidoes. My whisky journey started with Ardbeg 10. At first i only enjoyed strongly peated whisky, but then i developed the palate for sherried whisky and after that bourbon maturation and then also bourbons as well. I am fully hooked on whisky now 😅. My living room now shelters almost 200 bottles 😂.

[@McIntyresMalts]

Sounds like a journey not too dissimilar to mine! But I have a way to go to catch up to your collection, that's impressive!!

[@rares_21]

Glad you like it,Wade! How would you compare Lagavulin 16 with Port charlotte 10 or Ledaig 10?

[@McIntyresMalts]

Good question! Lagavulin 16 is classic, but if I’m being honest with myself the PC10 is a better whisky and presented as such too

[@McIntyresMalts]

The Ledaig 10 is a favourite of mine too, love them all!
