DIA 781568
Double matured in Pedro Ximenez cask wood to magically accentuate and deepen every aspect of the intense, rich character of Lagavulin.
Serving Suggestion: Lagavulin Distiller's Edition reveals more of its intensity with a drop of water.
Tasting Notes
APPEARANCE: Golden treacle.
BODY: Full bodied and rich in texture.
NOSE: Intense peat and vanilla. A raisin sweetness checks the smoke. Iodine-edged peat and crisp, toasty malt. Satisfying and enticing.
PALATE: A clear, grassy malt, then the peat lands – smoke filling the mouth. A very salty tang, the middle offers coffee, vanilla and fruit.
FINISH: Incredibly long, even by Islay standards. Fruit, peat and long-lasting oak. Very chewable.
