    Lagavulin 16 Year has become my favorite single malt scotch.

    I began drinking Single Malt Scotch on a trip to Scotland in 2005. While at the Oban Distillery I asked for a sample of the smoothest single malt scotch and was given a sample of Dalwhinnie...very smooth. Then I asked for the Best Single Malt with a Peat background and was given a sample of Lagavulin and the love affair is still going strong...I urge everyone to try it.
