If you like Lagavuillin, then try Laphroig, also made with the peaty water of the island of Islay (pronounced i-la)...not quite as "smokey" flavour but brilliant none-the-less. My tipple....well I know an 18yr old Macallan cannot be beaten, its even better than the 25yr old version (according to the still-man at the distillery) The secret...they mature it in single-use sherry casks which impart a very distinctive flavour....try it ...YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPPOINTED but for heavens sake add only a tiny bit of water...NOTING ELSE, and certainly NO ICE!!!! Enjoy, its our national drink!
