Lagavulin Islay Jazz Festival 2018

Tasting Notes

Lagavulin's 2018 Islay Jazz Festival bottling is a harmonious symphony of flavors, meticulously crafted to delight the senses. Matured in a masterful blend of first-fill American oak barrels, refill American oak hogsheads, and European oak puncheons, this whisky showcases the true artistry of Lagavulin's distillers. The marriage of these exceptional casks imparts a rich tapestry of flavors, where the smoky peat notes characteristic of Islay whiskies dance elegantly with hints of vanilla, caramel, and subtle spices. The result is a whisky that is both complex and balanced, with a lingering finish that will leave you savoring every sip, much like the echoes of a beloved jazz melody.
