Lagavulin Jazz Festival 2016

Lagavulin, a stalwart of Islay, has been crafting intensely flavored single malt whisky since 1816 – though its history of illicit distillation on the island likely stretches back further. This 2016 bottling, released to commemorate the Islay Jazz Festival, showcases the distillery’s signature profile of robust earthy smoke interwoven with savory depths. Matured in a combination of refill American oak and first-fill bourbon casks, it delivers a powerful 54.5% ABV experience. Expect a complex and characterful dram, representative of Lagavulin’s enduring legacy and its crucial role in the famed White Horse blend.
