Lagavulin The Distillers Edition 750ml
bv324-od
$219.99 price per bottle
Nose: I rather love this. It has the classic Lagavulin smoke, soot and a leathery dryness, but also a thick, medium sweet coating of Mon Cheri cherries, prune jam and brown sugar. Honey-glazed almonds. Cinnamon. Fresh floral / herbal top notes. Quite some coastal notes too (seaweed, very subtle iodine). Sweet tobacco. Complex and balanced. Mouth: sweet and surprisingly shy entry, maybe we were expecting a higher ABV to highlight the intense flavours. Smooth, starting on the common Lagavulin 16 elements: earthy peat, liquorice, Lapsang tea, smoked fish? Then some spices (pepper) and growing fatty notes ? it takes a while before it tilts towards sherry, figs, with chocolate, honey and a dark sweetness, say Turkish coffee. Finish: very long, on ashes, chocolate and peat smoke. A drier, more oaky hint as well.
