Released exclusively for the Feis Ile (the Islay Festival of Music and Malt) in 2015, this extraordinary 24-year-old single malt represents a pinnacle of Lagavulin's craft. Distilled in 1991 and matured in European oak ex-sherry casks, it bridges the gap between the distillery's legendary maritime peat smoke and the deep, resinous sweetness of historic sherry wood. The slow distillation in Lagavulin's pear-shaped stills on the windswept shores of Islay allows the spirit to absorb the coastal elements over more than two decades, resulting in an incredibly complex dram layered with rich dried fruits, dark chocolate, bonfire smoke, and sea spray.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Officially established in 1816 by John Johnston on the southern coast of the Isle of Islay, Scotland, Lagavulin is one of the world's most iconic single malt Scotch whisky distilleries, now owned by Diageo. Renowned for its exceptionally slow distillation process in characteristic pear-shaped stills, the distillery produces a rich, intensely peaty, and complex spirit. Lagavulin's signature style is defined by deep smoke, maritime brine, and dried fruit sweetness, epitomized by its legendary 16 Year Old expression and highly coveted limited releases like the 12 Year Old Special Releases and historic older bottlings matured in oak casks over decades-long periods of quiet aging on the shores of Lagavulin Bay Port Ellen Islay Scotland United Kingdom PA42 7DZ Scotland United Kingdom https://www.malts.com/en-row/distilleries/lagavulin
