Single Malt
Scotland
1 Jan 2003
It's the Lagavulin 12 Year Old from Diageo's 2003 Special Releases! 2003 saw the third year of Special Releases, and the series still causes a frenzy of annual excitement and intrigue in the whisky world to this day.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Quite meaty indeed - ham, Frazzles and a hint of BBQ sausage! A subtle sweetness of crème brûlée and strawberry jam, before more savoury notes of cumin and hay arrive.
Peppercorn, cinnamon and a good whack of peat smoke. Soda bread with butter, brown sugar, oatcake.
Burnt popcorn, oatcake again and a final touch of crystallised ginger.
