Lagavulin 1999 Distillers edition Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Volume: 700ml           ABV: 43%           Age: No Age Statement           Country: Scotland

A heavily peated Lagavulin finished in ex-Pedro Ximenez Sherry casks, twice! We could continue but that would be worthless. A truly memorable single malt from the Lagavulin distillery.

Our Tasting Notes

Nose: I’m taking in peat and plenty of iodine. The fruits are complete perfection, splashes of Sherry and fortified wine soaked raisins simmering in an open pot.

Palate: Sigh, just perfection. Rich smoke fills the mouth working with the vanilla’s and the Sherry. Little hints of dark chocolate combine well with the raisins and hazelnuts. A little creaminess and toffee sweetness.

Finish: A little earthiness, more chocolate and toffee and smooth smoke.
