LAGAVULIN 8 YEAR OLD
Released to commemorate the distillery's 200th anniversary, Lagavulin 8 Year Old is a tribute to the distillery's storied history. It's lighter and more vibrant than its 16-year-old sibling but still delivers the robust peat smoke and maritime character that Lagavulin is famous for. This expression highlights the distillery's skill in crafting whiskies that are both intensely flavoured and beautifully balanced, even at a younger age.

Nose
Delicate hints of milk chocolate and lemon, while a fragrant smokiness reminiscent of tea fills the air.
Palate
As the whisky unfolds, the Lagavulin taste explodes in a magnificent fullness. A combination of sweetness, smokiness, and a comforting warmth.
Finish
Exquisite; pure, remarkably lengthy, and filled with smoky allure. Even with the addition of water, the whisky remains warm, velvety, and still evokes smokiness, although the intensity has eased somewhat.
