This 21-year-old cask-strength single malt from Lagavulin was bottled from first-fill sherry casks for Diageo's 2012 annual Special Releases.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Vanilla and old pot pourii, leathery peat, passion fruit and star fruit in some exotic cocktail.
That tannic leathery peat followed by stewing tropical fruit with a syrupy mouth-feel.
Coal soot and burnt spice in a swift but wholesome finish.
There’s a lot going on with this dram, that would take an evening in itself to contemplate. Intriguing to unlock!

A friend and I spent some time getting to know this bottle last night. This is a seriously top notch whisky. It pays to give this one time in the glass, and in fact to use a great glass like the Eisch Jeunesse. Tasted properly, this explodes with flavor and depth. Don't guzzle this. It opens up nicely with just a few drops of water.
