Detailed Description
This year’s 12 year old Lagavulin Special Release is part of the distillery’s 200th anniversary celebrations! Aged in refill American oak hogsheads, it’s the fourteenth of these excellent 12 year old bottlings to feature in the Special Releases and is the most affordable in this year’s selection (the unpeated Caol Ila being slightly more expensive than the Laga this time around).
Lagavulin 12 Year Old 200th Anniversary Special Release 2016 Single Malt Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes
Nose: Classic Laga smoke, if a little sweeter, with pungent peat, green chilli and bitter lemon.
Palate: Caramel notes star on the palate, similar in this respect to the 2015 release, but with the smoke is sweeter and less sooty. Instead, there’s more evocative seaweed-covered harbour wall notes.
Finish: Long, smoky and satisfying.
