Product Description
Bottled in 2012, this 1996 edition of Lagavulin's Distillers Edition (probably the most sought after in the range) combines the regular rich, peat smoke that the distillery is known for with a finishing period in sweet Pedro Ximenez sherry casks for even more depth of flavour.

I love the Lagavulin 96, wish I could get more. A 94 would be even better.
Very nice – much smoother than regular Lagavulin.
lagavulin 1995 distillers edition purely is whisky royalty enjoyed with my two sons best way to enjoy a good whisky with family or friends excellent whisky would buy again. the cognac of whisky if you like smooth with smoke you will love this one not as medicinal as the 16 year old which i love this one would beat any whisky to the finishing post gold medal for this one
The 19 year is up there for some of the best Islay whiskeys i''ve ever had. Soft and peaty, its like lying on a cloud coated in velvet. It''s not at all intrusive on the nose with smokey notes not over powering its peaty, cedar character. This is one Whiskey that is truly worth saving and sharing among good friends.
Superb
