The Lagavulin 12 Year Old is a stunning expression that showcases the distillery’s mastery of peated whisky. The higher ABV (55.1%) adds an extra layer of intensity, and though bold, it’s also well-balanced. The smoke and peat are unmistakable, but there’s enough complexity, sweetness, and depth to keep it from feeling one-dimensional.
If you're someone who enjoys the robust and smoky characteristics of Islay whiskies, this is a real treat.
