Product Description
The 21st release of Lagavulin 12 Year Old as part of the Diageo Special Releases, and a whisky that continues a long and rightfully praised heritage. This year, a couple of extra components separate this from the pack. Firstly, the blending team selected extra smoky casks of whisky – they measure the phenol levels whenever a cask is filled, so can pick out extra-peaty whiskies if they need them. And secondly, they added some new-oak-finished whisky to the mix, adding extra layers of spice to an already big and smoky dram.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Billy Abbott, The Whisky Exchange
Nose
Damp peat smoke, rich loamy soil, seaweed and roasted apples. Tarry notes build along with creosote, mulching leaves and woody spice. Classic Lapsang Souchong tea notes are joined by hints of smoked fish and smoky leather.
Palate
Intense golden sugar sweetness wrapped in damp green leaves, mulchy earth, black pepper and sour green apples. Damp oak and smouldering driftwood builds with a touch of something medicinal. The tar and leather from the nose provide a backbone.
Finish
Rich and earthy notes linger with flashes of mint choc chip.
