Lagavulin 2008 / 12 Year Old / Special Releases 2021 Islay Whisky

70cl / 56.5% / Distillery Bottling - Distilled in 2008, this 12-year-old Lagavulin single malt has been matured in refill American oak casks before being bottled as part of Diageo's 2021 Special Releases. Aromas of salty sea air, fragrant smoke-dried tea, cocoa powder, lemon juice and dried seaweed fill the nose, alongside rich wood-smoke from seaside bonfires. The palate offers notes of lemon juice, sea salt, charred logs, oily brine, waves of rich peat smoke and spicy pepper that linger in the finish.
