Lagavulin 1997 Distillers Edition

Distilled in 1997 at the famed Lagavulin Distillery on Islay, this Distillers Edition offers a unique perspective on a beloved single malt. After initial maturation, the whisky was finished in rich Pedro Ximenez Sherry casks, imparting notes of dark fruit and sweetness to Lagavulin’s signature smoky character. The result is a complex and rewarding dram, balancing intense peat with raisin, fig, and a subtle sherry spice. Bottled in 2013 at 43% ABV, this expression showcases the harmonious interplay between Islay’s robust spirit and the influence of Spanish sherry wood.
