Lagavulin 1995 Jazz Festival 2013

Lagavulin, a stalwart of Islay, has been crafting intensely flavored malt whisky since 1816, building on a legacy of even earlier illicit distillation. This 1995 vintage, bottled in 2013 for the Jazz Festival, showcases the distillery’s signature profile of robust earthy smoke interwoven with rich, savory notes, matured for 18 years in a sherry butt. At 51.9% ABV, it delivers a powerful yet balanced experience, revealing the depth and complexity often found in older expressions linked to the White Horse blend. Expect a sublime whisky, one of only 1,500 bottles selected by Iain McArthur, embodying the character of this iconic Scottish distillery.
