About this deal

Genel Yorum : Lagavulin 8’i değerlendirmek için markanın standart ekspresyonu 16 ile kıyaslamak en mantıklısı. 16’ya göre en önemli fark 8’i çok daha vahşi ve ne yazık ki dengesiz bir viski olması. Burunda genç karakterine rağmen keyifli bulsam da damakta biraz dengesiz ve gövdesi düşük bir ekspresyon. Kör bir tadımda 8 yıldan daha genç bir viski olduğunu söyleyebilirdim. Bu yazı ilginizi çektiyse; Nose: Salted popcorn, honey-roasted nuts, tarry ropes and light hints of freshly-chopped cedar. A touch of burnt sugar sweetness lingers. Lagavulin 11 yo 'Offerman Edition' (46%, OB, charred oak, 3rd Edition, 2022) - 200323 - by Angus - 210123 Lagavulin Scotch was one of the six whiskies marketed as part of the ‘Classic Malts of Scotland’ when it was launched in 1988, and that only increased the demand. The Lagavulin distillery’s spirit stills are actually larger than the wash stills, along with a 4.4 ton stainless steel mash tun. For starters, the higher ABV of the Lagavulin 8, asserts a more potent and impactful flavour. It brings out the character of the whisky in a more profound way, allowing the smoky, peaty notes to shine through strongly. This punchier profile means it’s a dram that commands your attention. It’s bold.

The bright, citrusy notes of the Lagavulin 8, combined with its smoky finish, pair exceptionally well with lighter fare. Consider shellfish – perhaps a nice scallop dish or oysters on the half-shell. Light cheeses, like brie or camembert, also work well, their creaminess complementing the whisky’s vibrant flavours.Lagavulin 26 yo 1991/2017 (51.7%, OB, Casks of Distinction, Hong Kong, butt, cask #3479, 492 bottles) - 201219 Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates.

When it comes to Scotch whisky, few distilleries have a reputation as stellar as Lagavulin. From its origins in 1816, this Islay single malt has long been revered for its smoky and peaty flavours. Lagavulin celebrated their 200th anniversary in 2016, producing a number of limited edition bottlings. These included a Lagavulin 8 Year Old (which would eventually become part of the distillery’s core range), a Lagavulin 25 Year Old and the Lagavulin 12 Year Old (a regular feature of Diageo’s Special Releases).Lagavulin 8, markanın 2016’da kuruluşunun 200. yılını kutlama amacıyla çıkardığı bir ekspresyon.
