Lagavulin 12 y.o. - Diageo Special Releases 2025 - 200ml

Special features: This limited special release from the renowned Diageo Special Releases series 2025 presents a 12-year-old Lagavulin, which has matured in a combination of refill casks as well as European oak casks filled with Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso. This special cask combination gives the whisky a unique depth and complexity.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Strong, clear aromas with moderate intensity. Immediately phenolic, with smoldering peat and wood ash, then a soft-perfumed sweetness, underpinned by mineral-marine notes reminiscent of lobster pots, fresh scallops, and dry oyster shells. Over time, the bouquet becomes drier.
• Palate: Smooth and slightly oily in texture, with strong flavors. At the same time sweet with notes of dried fruits, spicy-piquant and salty. Then strong smoky peat notes develop. With a drop of water, it becomes smoother and sweeter, yet remains full of life.
• Finish: Very long, dry, and slightly smoky, with lingering saltiness and more peat in the aftertaste. A little water adds a certain chili spice.

Distillery/Bottler: The Lagavulin Distillery, founded in 1816, is located on the southern coast of the Scottish island of Islay. It is known for its characteristic heavily peated single malts, which are appreciated worldwide. As part of the Diageo Special Releases 2025, this bottling showcases the masterful craftsmanship of the distillery.
