Description

FULL DESCRIPTION
A much sought-after single malt with the massive peat-smoke that’s typical of southern Islay – but also offering richness and a dryness that turns it into a truly interesting tipple. The 16 year old has truly become a benchmark Islay dram from the Lagavulin distillery.

TASTING NOTES
Appearance: Dark and brooding
Nose: More like Lapsang Souchong tea than Lapsang Souchong! One of the smokiest noses from Islay. It’s big, very, very concentrated, and redolent of iodine, sweet spices, good, mature Sherry and creamy vanilla. Stunning.
Taste: Very thick and rich. A massive mouthful of malt and Sherry with good fruity sweetness, but also a wonderful sweetness. Big, powerful peat and oak.
Finish: Long, spicy finish, figs, dates, peat smoke, vanilla.
Overall: Islay classic, an icon of a single malt.

RECOMMENDATIONS
The best example of a Islays single malt whisky theycan think of and synonymous with the island. Not for the beginner, this is heavily peated. If you’re buying for a Scottish whisky fan why not also consider Laphroaig Select.
