Karlee Rosado 5.0

There's nothing better than enjoying a limited edition Lagavulin at the distillery itself. Both the feis ile and jazz festival bottles were fantastic!

Remington Ruth 4.0

no age statement, 54.1% ABV - bold, water helps, smoky tea, brine, initial bitterness, American oak influence

Julia Wenger 4.0

Smoky and sweet. Not as good as the 16, but very close.

Kris Pierre 5.0

Fruity with a bit of peat
