Lagavulin 1996 16 Years The Distillers Edition 2012 Special Release lgv.4/500 Double matured in Pedro Ximenez Sherry Wood Islay Single Malt Whisky 43.0%Vol. - rare bottling of a great Lagavulin Islay Single Malt!
A rare vintage 1996 16 year old Laguvulin s Double Matured Distillers Edition Special Release Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky from the year 2012. This great 16-year-old single malt whisky of the classic malts selection from the Islay legend Lagavulin was distilled in 1996, double matured for up to 6 months in European Pedro Ximenez Sherry oak casks - these give the whisky more fruit, such as raisins and dry fruits and a syrupy character. The whisky was bottled in the year 2012 with 43.0% abv and the batch number lgv.04/500 under the direction of distillery manager Georgie Crawford.
This is the definitive Islay Malt - untameable, with the strongest peat flavour of any of the malt whiskies from this wild island shore. Its dry, complex strength of character, with characteristic notes of sea-spray, is perfectly matched by the sweet accents of sun-dried grapes derived from Pedro Ximenez cask-wood in which this special edition has been doubly matured. As a result, this is a rich, peaty malt with a sweet undertone. Perhaps unsuprisingly it is a stunning whisky and is very highly rated indeed.
Ingenious and complex, this fine Lagavulin Islay single malt Scotch whisky delivers the expected Lagavulin intensity with elegance and style and impressively shows the unique Islay character.
A great Lagavulin Islay single malt Scotch whisky and a beautiful expression for connoisseurs, the discerning whisky collector and lovers of special Scotch whiskies!
