Lagavulin Distiller's Edition
The Tasting Notes
Dark oak and raisins soaked in liquor, with sweet wine-cask notes, restrained peat and fragrant smoke. Oak and wine sit underneath the smoke, which becomes more pronounced over time.
Oily, sweet and spicy, with raisin sweetness, rich smoke and roasted malt. The peat intensifies alongside salt and spice, becoming increasingly drying with a hint of espresso coffee grounds.
Very long and darkly smoky, with warming dark oak and spice. Lingering smoke remains in the aftertaste.
Details
Lagavulin Distillers Edition is part of the Distillers Edition series, which uses a two-stage maturation process to develop additional depth and complexity while retaining the character of the original single malt. Casks are selected to complement the individual style of each whisky.
For Lagavulin, the additional maturation adds another layer to its distinctive Islay character, with the secondary cask influence accentuating selected flavour characteristics beyond those found in the regular bottling.
