Blasting from the glass, this malt's nose shows intense notes of cured lemon, sea spray, orange liqueur, barley cookie, and dark cocoa. The palate echoes these flavors and adds a warming wisp of peat smoke to the formidable mix.- 2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge (Extraordinary, Ultimate Recommendation) (Great Value) (Tried & True Award)
Soy sauce, olive brine, peat, honey, oloroso Sherry, brewer's yeast, bread dough, barley malt and cigar smoke in the bouquet. The flavor that magically includes the innate intense peatiness of Islay malts and the masterly employment of oak barrels phase defines classy Islay.' Concludes sweetly, without sacrificing the tangy, astringent peatiness that is inherent. Gorgeous.- P.P. (4/1/2004) - 90-95. 43% alcohol. Dark intense Lagavulin (pronounced Laga-voolin after the Gaelic Laggan Mhouillin, 'the hollow where the mill is') comes from a whitewashed jumble of buildings by the sea on Islay's rocky southern shore. Founded in 1816, this is a great Islay malt. Pungent and potent, with richly peaty, deep, smoky flavor, it has an intense, long, ambrosial finish. . Works in an extraordinary way with intensely flavoured salty blue cheeses - Roquefort, Stilton, Gorgonzola and Lanark Blue. Also excellent with anchovies on toast. Liquor
