If you’ve discovered the 16 year old Lagavulin it’s now time to step into well balanced and probably the best ever bottled peated single malt from this distillery below $200. Lagavulin produces special bottling’s every year and in 2014 they bottled a whisky which had spent 12 years maturing in an American Oak barrel. They also bottled it at cask strength for that added perfection.
