Summary

This whisky is a special release from the Lagavulin distillery, crafted specifically for the 2011 Islay Jazz Festival. Distilled in 1993, it is a single malt Scotch whisky that embodies the rich heritage and craftsmanship of the Islay region. The whisky has been aged for 18 years, allowing it to develop a complex and mature character that is highly sought after by connoisseurs and collectors alike.

The aging process has imparted a deep, rich flavor profile to the whisky, with notes that are both robust and nuanced. The influence of the Islay terroir is evident, with a pronounced peat smoke character that is balanced by layers of dried fruit and oak. This creates a harmonious blend of flavors that is both intense and refined, making it a standout expression in the Lagavulin range.

Bottled at cask strength, this whisky offers a full-bodied and powerful drinking experience. The higher alcohol content enhances the depth of flavors, providing a long and satisfying finish. It is a whisky that demands to be savored, ideally enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to unlock its full potential. Whether you are a seasoned whisky enthusiast or a newcomer to the world of single malts, this release is sure to impress with its complexity and elegance.
