Every year since 2001, Diageo have released a series of Special Releases featuring rare, limited edition whiskies from some of Scotland’s finest distilleries. The 2021 Special Releases are the 20th set in this highly collectable series, and includes 8 Single Malt whiskies, bottled at cask strength, and released in limited quantities. The 2021 series has been titled “Legends Untold” and features striking illustrations and design work from digital illustrator Ken Taylor. A generously rich and complex L. a. gavulin with a smouldering intensity of bold, sherried fruits and pungent peat smoke. Intense and complex on both the nose and palate, with aromas and flavours of heady dried fruits, baked fig, oak, and bonfires by the sea. Full bodied and well rounded, this exceptional, well aged L. a. gavulin offers a harmonious medley of sweet, fruity, and savoury flavours, enveloped in a light haze of peat smoke.
