Exciting stuff! The first Lagavulin to be released by That Boutique-y Whisky Company. Only 101 bottles of this Islay single malt Scotch whisky have been filled at 54.5% vol. The hand hand-illustrated label on this Lagavulin features a boat and some pirates (Dave Broom and Colin Dunn!), docked at Lagavulin Bay!
Tasting Notes
Lagavulin Batch 1 Official Tasting Notes
Nose: Malted Milks and candied orange peel before the peat comes in on a wave of linseed, green apple skin and nutshells. A little water reveals some squashed banana and meatiness.
Palate: Smokier peat, Lapsang and Oolong, spicy oak, cinnamon, star fruit, fruit salad and Fruit Salad sweets.
Finish: Very long with tropical peat notes.
Overall: Fruity, spicy, peaty - this is a refreshing Laga without losing that characteristic richness. Try it with a little flat cola, if ye dare!
