Product Information
Lagavulin is one of the smokiest and most intense whiskies in the world. Since 1816, Lagavulin Single Malt Scotch Whisky has been made in a picturesque huddle of buildings on Lagavulin Bay looking onto Dunyvaig castle. Revered by connoisseurs and experts, Lagavulin is known as "The King of Islay".
Originally a limited edition to celebrate Lagavulin's 200th anniversary, this 8 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky became a permanent favourite. Inspired by an exceptional 8 year old tasted in the 1880s, it embodies the distillery's rich past. Expect a complex symphony of flavours. The nose offers fragrant, tea-scented smoke with maritime hints, while the taste is a delightful dance of smoke, salted popcorn, honeyed nuts, and a touch of sweetness. A lingering warmth with hints of apple crumble and spice completes the experience.
This award-winning single malt Scotch whisky is best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water to unlock its full potential. A touch of ice works too, if you prefer a lighter dram. This 8 year old Lagavulin is a perfect choice for those who enjoy peaty, smoky Scotches. It's a fantastic conversation starter or a luxurious nightcap. Whether you're a seasoned drinker or new to the world of single malts, the Lagavulin 8 Year Old is an exceptional dram waiting to be explored.

Further description
Lagavulin is one of the smokiest and most intense whiskies in the world. And it has even more richness to offer through deep sweetness and notes of dried fruits. Revered by connoisseurs and experts, it's known as “the king of Islay”. Situated in the romantic location of the beautiful island of Islay, the Lagavulin distillery looks onto Dunyvaig Castle. 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. A celebration of the people and craft that have made Lagavulin great over the last two centuries, its fragrant, tea-scented smoke alongside nose-drying, maritime aromas is unlocked with just a drop of water. Inspired by the visit of Alfred Barnard to the distillery in the 1880s when he tried an 'exceptionally fine' eight-year-old from the distillery, this is a fitting tribute for the milestone. With a light body that becomes pleasantly oily, the Lagavulin 8 Year Old palate boasts a magnificently full-on Lagavulin taste that's somehow even bigger than you expect. The clean, long finish is subtle with minted smoke and warming chocolate notes. The limited edition 8 Year Old calls for some special attention. Make time to enjoy neat in a whisky nosing glass, or with maybe just a drop of water. The limited edition, beautifully pristine presentation box makes it the perfect gift for lovers of peaty and powerful whiskies
