A highly sought-after single malt Scotch whisky with tremendous peat-smoke typical of southern Islay - but also richness and a dryness that elevates it to a genuinely unique drink. The Lagavulin 16 year old has established itself as a benchmark Islay dram. If you're looking for a meal pairing for this gem, consider powerfully flavoured salty blue cheeses, which combine beautifully with the Lagavulin's robust, peat-rich, sweet and salty taste.

Nose: One of Islay's most smoky noses. It's huge, intense, and scented with iodine, sweet spices, good, aged Sherry, and creamy vanilla. Stunning. Palate: Very thick and flavorful. A huge taste of malt and Sherry, with superb fruity sweetness and a lovely sweetness. Peat and oak are massive and powerful. Finish: Figs, dates, peat smoke, and vanilla dominate the long, spicy aftertaste. |
