Special features: This bottling is part of the renowned Distillers Edition from Diageo, where each single malt undergoes a second maturation in special casks that emphasize and expand the regional character. Lagavulin completes its distinctive Islay whisky with a finishing in Pedro-Ximénez (PX) sherry casks, which combine its peaty-smoky notes with a complex sweetness from dark oak and liqueur-soaked raisins.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Smoky peat meets notes of sweet raisins, dark chocolate, and a hint of vanilla.
Palate: Full-bodied with an intense combination of peat smoke, ripe fruit, and spicy wood nuances.
Finish: Long-lasting, warm, and accompanied by a fine sweetness that elegantly captures the bitter smoky aromas.
