Description

A 16-year-old Islay Single Malt Scotch whisky from Lagavulin's renowned Distillers Edition series, distilled in 1998 and bottled in 2014. This special release underwent double maturation, spending approximately 16 years in ex-bourbon casks before a finishing period of up to 6 months in European Pedro Ximénez sherry oak casks, imparting rich fruit and syrupy characteristics to its intense peaty profile. Bottled at 43.0% ABV, it is part of the Classic Malts Selection and is a highly sought-after limited edition.
