Do you like whiskey? Scotch? If so, how do you like yours? On ice? With coke? Neat?
Do any of you know anything about Lagavulin 16?

I usually drink a small glass at the end of a drinking evening. Like I'll pour a shot worth. Nice splash of water (I'm sorry I can't drink it straight). I'll sip while I'm drinking another beer and while having a cigarette.

I prefer whiskey (Bourbon) over scotch, but I generally have to be in the right mood for either.
If I do drink it, I usually drink it neat, and usually pair it with a cigar (I also don't smoke very often, but when I do I try to make it worth the nicotine exposure).

I bought a bottle of Lagavulin 16 today. Paid $113 bucks for it. And I'm no baller, believe me. Hopefully this bottle lasts me a few months (my last expensive bottle of bourbon, Garrison Brothers, lasted me a few months).
I only have a small glass like once a week or once every two weeks. I just really have wanted to try this for the longest, because it's generally considered one of the top (if not the top) scotches out there. It's been highly recommended to me by a few people. But man, it has a pretty gnarly description when you surf the web looking at how people describe it. One thing that seems to pop up the most is that it's pungent. I've heard those who love it describe it tasting like a lovely beach campfire (lol okay), while others who did not like it described it as tasting like licking an ashtray from a dirty hole in the wall bar. Gross. But all agree that it is very, very smoky. And peaty. They say it's super deep. Oh so deep. Highly complex. Caramelized wheat, salty, sweet, hints of orange, red cherry and even smoked fish (wtf??). Among many, many other descriptions. I saw one person who didn't like it that said it tasted like licking the side of an old boat that has been sitting in the ocean for a while. The descriptions are wildly all over the place. I guess like everything, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder.
But anyway, whether I love it or hate it, I finally get to try it now. Will probably try it this weekend. This scotch is aged 16 years, btw. I'll let you guys know how it is.

This article here, from 2021, ranks Lagavulin 16 as its #1 scotch.
https://manofmany.com/lifestyle/drinks/best-scotch-whisky-brands
Quote:
1. Lagavulin
The one, the only: Lagavulin. Popularised by actor Nick Offerman (who was recently honoured with his own release), this Islay-based distillery has mastered the art of single malt Scotch. Its 16 Year statement is quite simply the stuff of legend and one of the world’s best whiskies, presuming you have a penchant for peat. Like refined molasses melting over a bonfire, it delivers palpable layers of sweet and pungent smoke. More than a quality brand, Lagavulin will awaken dormant taste buds.
Region: Islay
Founded in: 1816
Best-known expression: 16 Year

Okay not that anyone cares about my novice scotch review lol but I did try it this past weekend. Lagavulin 16'. Only had one very small drink, so further research and exploration of this bottle will be required, but I liked it. Certainly preferred it to the last bottle of bourbon I had (Garrison Brothers). And I know that bourbon and scotch are different. But I think from now on I will be exploring the world of scotch as opposed to the world of whiskey & bourbon.

When i was an alcoholic i drank jack daniels. For some reason i never got a hang over from it, ever. On the other hand if i drank more than 3 beers of any kind-hangover. I preferred to mix the JD with dry ginger ale. I dont drink anything anymore but if i did it would be jd whiskey around a campfire at the beach. Not a fan of smokey flavours.

Honestly I have yet to even venture into the world of scotch, I feel like I need to really buy a good expensive top shelf bottle to really experience it.
I hated whiskey for a long long time but for now it seems I really enjoy Jack Daniels. I wish they wouldn't charge so much for their flavored varieties but I suppose its good inspiration to get a regular bottle and spruce the drinks up(cinnamon/spice/honey/apple)
but, for now, I say jager > all

I'm heading to New Mexico this morning. Got a really cool place rented out for a few days. It's surrounded by stunning scenery and pretty private. About to make the 9 hour drive. I got my bottle of Lagavulin with me. Going to partake a little bit over the next few days.

Do you prefer the smokey/islay scotches?
I pretty much only go for the highland non-peated ones, except for Oban or blends that have some slight smoke. I feel like it's probably an acquired taste and if I went to a tasting or something I could get into it.
I actually used to run whiskey tastings but always avoided the peated ones. Got to sample Macallan 25 sherried once... tasted almost like candy with zero burn to it

Kraken is tasty, great for buttered rum and as part of the brown booze mix in eggnog.
And this reminds me of the unpopular opinion thread...

theres some good rums out in the wild, diplomatico, matusalem are some subtly tasty rums where the sweetness doesn't over power the pallet.

Nice!!
I think the next bottle I'm going to but is Ardbeg 10.
I'm still working on that bottle of Lagavulin 16 I got back when I started this thread. Still got a fourth or so left of that bottle. Going to pour a glass later this evening.

Most of single malt whiskey that I've tried are good but overpriced.
If you like rum not so sweet, would could try Flor de Caña from Nicaragua or Brugal from Dominican.

I have had a dope life... No I don't. I'm lying. I was an alcoholic. No lies though. My dad brought a 750.00 bottle of whiskey once. So fucking good. He drank like a bitch though. Mr one glass ass hole. Nah fool. We're about to kill this bottle!

Last night I tried mixing some hoppy lager with a little bit of vermouth, then put a jalapeno slice in it. It was like drinking creek water, man, it was so damn nasty. I mean I still drank all of it, but wow, yuck.

Got some nice christmas gifts
Ooooohhhh nice
I'm going to day drink today. Going to finish my bottle of Lagavulin -- I think I'm going to try Ardbeg 10 next
Oddly enough those are 2 of the ones I'd probably be least likely to recommend to someone new to scotch , very strong/funky flavors and lots of depth. If I could just get over my aversion to smoke I'd probably love them, right now an Oban or Springbank are really the peatiest I go
Haven't drank since before christmas, planning to try the balvenie rum cask and glenmorangie sauterne cask scotches tomorrow night though as an after dinner treat, can't wait. I keep looking at new bottles to get but just don't drink often enough to justify it any more

Oh my, the Caribbean cask was awful. Pure ethanol, made my whole tongue numb. I've read from some people that once you open the bottle for a bit and let it mellow it improve a bunch, hoping that's the case. Added a bit of water but it didn't help much
Went back to my Glendronarch 15 year sherry cask, what a difference. It's like drinking Christmas time, smooth as hell and all sorts or warm flavors popping out. Opening the Sauternes cask now which should be interesting, I've had the wine before and its a great sweet desert sipper

Sauternes cask is yummy. I've drank a bunch or the original Glenmorangie, it's pretty interesting how this one tastes identical with the sweet honey lightness, then drifts off into the oaky vanilla sauternes flavor at the end.

Yes I'm diving into the deep end lol
I loved Lagavulin 16. Will get again. I just drink it with a splash of water.
Going to pick up that bottle of Ardbeg maybe this week or next.

About to kill this 12 pack of Modelo while watching 272 because I can.
--------------------
Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes
Lessons learned then gradually surfacing, Letting go, stripping naked to scream
I am not perfect nor do I strive to be, I am alive in this world of face first falls and public breakdowns
I'm a retarded, disfigured clown
Dying to be heard through the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall
I'm an equal being of no race, or color, a hallucination if you will
Sneaking into the lives of strangers, and letting them fall apart to a new rhythm just to feel better
