Released to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the founding of Lagavulin distillery by John Johnston in 1816, this eight-year-old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is big and smoky.
Nose - Fresh notes, faint hints of milk chocolate and lemon and then developing fragrant tea-scented smoke alongside nose-drying, maritime aromas, with subtle cereal. Softer, fuller and more rounded with water: it’s not hugely fruity but there’s just a trace of red berry preserve beneath the smokiness.
Palate - A soothing light texture, sweet, smoky and warming, with a growing, smoky pungency, then dry, with more smoke. Charred, with minty, dark chocolate, oven-charred baked potato skins and smoke.
Finish - Very long and smoky. Smoothly, subtle minted smoke surrounds chocolate tannins, leaving a late drying note to emerge in time. It’s warming, soft and still smoky with water, yet still leaving the palate dry as sweet smoke lingers on the breath.
