Lagavulin 8 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 70cl
A roaring bonfire from the coast of Islay, Lagavulin is one of the smokiest and most intense whiskies in the world. The 8-year-old has even more richness to offer through deep sweetness and notes of dried citrus fruits.
Revered by connoisseurs and experts, it’s known as 'the King of Islay'. Situated in the romantic location of the beautiful island of Islay, the Lagavulin distillery looks onto Dunyvaig Castle.
A celebration of the people and craft that have made Lagavulin great over the last two centuries, its fragrant, tea-scented smoke alongside nose-drying, maritime aromas is unlocked with just a drop of water.
Inspired by the visit of Alfred Barnard to the distillery in the 1880s when he tried an 'exceptionally fine' eight-year-old from the distillery, this is a fitting tribute for the milestone. With a light body that becomes pleasantly oily, the Lagavulin 8-Year-Old palate boasts a magnificently full-on Lagavulin taste that’s somehow even bigger than you expect.
The clean, long finish is subtle with minted smoke and warming chocolate notes.

A bit of history
Lagavulin 8 Years is a limited-edition whisky put out by the distillery to promote its 200th anniversary. It is inspired by the visit of Alfred Barnard, the author of “The Whisky Distilleries of the United Kingdom”, to the distillery in the 1880s where he enjoyed an 8-year-old Lagavulin which he described as “exceptionally fine”. The distillery, therefore, decided to recreate an 8-year-old whisky to commemorate the visit.
