Description

Lagavulin is an Islay single malt Scotch whisky, officially founded in 1816. This 1997 Distillers Edition, bottled in 2013, is double-matured, with a finishing period in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. This process adds an intense, raisiny sweetness that beautifully complements Lagavulin's signature smoky and peaty character, creating a rich and powerful malt. It is part of the annual Distillers Edition series, known for its unique twists on classic whiskies through double maturation.
