Actor, comedian and Scotch whisky enthusiast Nick Offerman has, since 2014, become something of an offbeat spokesperson for the Lagavulin Scotch single malt whisky brand since his famous character Ron Swanson on Parks & Rec first showed an affinity for it. He’s gone on since then to do ongoing digital content for Lagavulin, including his pretty famous Yule Log video. Now, in a further deepening of this partnership, Offerman has his very own bottling to brag about.
