A fiery, raisin-sweet symphony.

Lagavulin Distillery, located in the wild and untamed Hebridean Isles, is a one-of-a-kind operation that's been around since 1742 (when things were a bit more secretive if you get our drift). Fast forward to 1816, and they've been making legitimate, smoky-rich Spirits ever since. Using the "low and slow" distillation and their signature pear-shaped pot stills, their Whisky is aged for a minimum of 16 years in oak casks, resulting in a complex blend of peat smoke, seaweed, and wood. But here’s the thing. A sip of their smoky nectar will either transport you to Whisky heaven or will have you running for cover. In any case, Lagavulin has remained one of the top picks among true Scotch Whisky aficionados, including the famous Parks and Recreation star Nick Offerman who lovingly calls it "mother's milk."

Each year, a limited quantity of Distillers Edition is released, taking the already iconic Lagavulin Single Malt to new heights of depth, nuance, and complexity. The 2022 batch got treated to a second round of maturation in Pedro Ximenz-seasoned re-charred American Oak barrels that were previously filled with juicy, sun-dried grape wine. With a rich, raisin-sweet palate accentuated by fiery smokiness, this Distillers Edition is best sipped neat or with a splash of water to fully unleash the magic of its flavor profile — drink up and let yourself get transported to the magical rolling hills of Scotland.

Lagavulin Whisky from the Islay is one of the most recognized single malts around, known for its smoky, peaty and salty notes that are influenced by its environment.

Many agree that the peat and smoke-filled flavour profile of Lagavulin Whisky is an acquired taste. Appreciating it usually takes some practice and you shouldn’t be afraid to dilute it with a few drops of water to let the aromas develop fully. This challenging character is one of the reasons that Lagavulin has built a strong following around the world – in the words of the Distillery Manager Georgie Crawford: “…when you do get to a place where you have tamed it, you feel you have achieved something great, and it will just keep giving you great pleasure then!”

The standard Lagavulin single malt is 16 years old (43%), though they regularly release a 12-year-old cask strength variety, a Distiller's edition finished in Pedro Ximénez casks, and 25- and 30-year-old varieties.

Lagavulin is produced by United Distillers & Vintners, which in turn is owned by Diageo plc. It is marketed under their Classic Malts brand. The name of Lagavulin is an anglicization of the Gaelic lag a'mhuilin, meaning "hollow by the mill".

Nose is complex and develops as it sits. Picked up sherry, dark earthy notes before over ripe fruit and rich vanilla cane in. Nice viscous mouth feel. On the palate there is some oak spice, raisins, and peat. Got some coffee and spice on the finish. Liked this edition better than a couple years back
