LAGAVULIN 8 YEAR OLD ISLAY MALT 48% 700ML

Lagavulin 8 Year Old is like enjoying a fine meal. The first whiff you take will bring to mind honey-roasted nuts, salted popcorn, tarry ropes and a touch of burnt sugar.

Once on the tongue, it does have that Islay peatiness but perfectly hidden behind notes of cumin powder, coriander seed, barley sugar and smoked kippers followed by marzipan for dessert.

It has a long finish that leaves the tongue with touches of char and ash but totally refreshed by the tone of minty dark chocolate. Wonderful neat, as any whisky should be consumed, but purported to be a magnificent added to creamy hot chocolate.
