Lagavulin 16yo Islay Single Malt 700ml

Lagavulin 16yo Islay Single Malt 700ml

A much sought-after single malt with the massive peat-smoke that's typical of southern Islay - but also offering richness and a dryness that turns it into a truly interesting dram. The 16-year-old has become a benchmark Islay dram from the Lagavulin distillery

TASTING NOTES

More like Lapsang Souchong tea than Lapsang Souchong! One of the smokiest noses from Islay. It's big, very, very concentrated, and redolent of iodine, sweet spices, good, mature Sherry and creamy vanilla. Stunning. Very thick and rich. A massive mouthful of malt and Sherry with good fruity sweetness, but also a wonderful sweetness. Big, powerful peat and oak. Long, spicy finish, figs, dates, peat smoke, vanilla.

Alc: 43%
