Lagavulin 16 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Aged in oak casks for at least sixteen years, this much sought-after single malt has the massive peat-smoke that's typical of southern Islay - but also offering a dryness that turns it into a truly interesting dram.

 

Appearance: Deep amber gold.

 

Nose: Intensely flavoured, peat smoke with iodine and seaweed and a rich, deep sweetness.

 

Body: Full, rich bodied.

 

Palate: Dry peat smoke fills the palate with a gentle but strong sweetness, followed by sea and salt with touches of wood.

 

Finish: A long, elegant peat-filled finish with lots of salt and seaweed.
