Lagavulin 12 Year Old Special Release Grain & Embers Single Malt Whisky 2025 750ml

Description

Lagavulin Special Release: Limited Edition Grain & Embers Single Malt Whisky, 750ml Flames dance through tradition in this Lagavulin 12-year-old expression, matured in refill casks and Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso-seasoned European oak butts. Delve into fire-baked embers, toasted cereal notes and the aroma of artisan bread, where layers of rich dried fruit — raisins, figs and dates — rise through smoldering smoke. Every sip honors the craft of kinship, with a finish that lingers like the warmth of an Islay hearth. This Lagavulin limited edition is bold, peated, unforgettable.

Nose: A bold, phenolic nose with smoldering peat, wood ash and hints of soap and plaster. Maritime notes evoke rock pools, lobster pots, fresh scallops and oyster shells. The aroma grows drier over time, and even a drop of water closes it considerably.

Palate:Smooth and lightly oily in texture. The robust, sweet taste exudes dried fruit character, savory-spicy and salty, developing powerfully smoky hints of peat. Smoother and sweeter with a drop of water, it remains full of life.

Finish:Long, drying and lightly smoky, with lingering salt and a peat aftertaste. A bit of water adds chili pepper spice.
