Lagavulin 8 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750 mL
Introduction:
Lagavulin 8 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a bold and smoky expression crafted to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the distillery’s founding. Inspired by Alfred Barnard’s visit to the distillery in the 1880s, this whisky delivers a powerful yet balanced profile, showcasing the hallmark maritime and peaty character of Lagavulin.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Soft and fresh with hints of milk chocolate, lemon, and fragrant tea-scented smoke, followed by maritime aromas and a touch of cereal.
- Palate: A full-bodied, sweet, and smoky profile with warming layers of dark chocolate, charred wood, and subtle mint, leading to a well-balanced mid-palate with a hint of salt.
- Finish: Exceptionally long and smoky with lingering notes of chocolate tannins, subtle mint, and a drying sweet smoke.
Pairings:
Best enjoyed neat in a whisky nosing glass or with a drop of water to unlock its full complexity. It pairs well with smoked meats, aged cheeses, dark chocolate, and roasted nuts, enhancing its rich and peaty character.
