Lagavulin 12 Year Old (Special Release 2016) 200th Anniversary

Tasting Notes

This celebratory 12-year-old Lagavulin whisky is a true embodiment of the distillery's 200-year legacy. Upon nosing, it unveils a delightful blend of classic Lagavulin peat smoke, subtly sweetened with hints of green chili and zesty lemon. The palate is greeted by a delectable caramel essence, reminiscent of the 2015 release, yet the smoke takes on a sweeter, less sooty character, evoking images of seaweed-covered harbor walls. The finish is remarkably long, smoky, and deeply satisfying, leaving a lasting impression. As part of the distillery's bicentennial celebrations and the fourteenth in the esteemed Special Releases lineup, this affordable yet exceptional whisky is a must-try for peat enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike.
