Tasting Notes
Lagavulin's 12 Year Old (Special Release 2015) is a true embodiment of Islay's rugged spirit, capturing the essence of the island's salty sea air and smoky peat fires. Upon nosing, you're transported to a coastal haven, greeted by a harmonious blend of sweet maritime notes, zesty citrus, crisp green apple skin, and the unmistakable aroma of leather and malty wine. The palate is a delightful dance of candied lemons, tangy lime marmalade, and a medley of succulent fruits and nuts, all enveloped in a captivating plume of dry, savory smoke. The finish lingers with the lingering presence of drying wood smoke, leaving an indelible mark on the senses. This exceptional single malt whisky, meticulously crafted from malts distilled in 2001 and 2002, and matured in refill American oak casks, offers a truly unforgettable experience for whisky enthusiasts.
