Description

Lagavulin 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750mlAged in oak casks for at least 16 years, this highly rated single malt Scotch whisky has the massive peat smoke flavor synonymous with the southern Islay region of Scotland. Best enjoyed from a traditional whisky glass, neat or with a little still water. Room temperature water can bring out the hidden aromas and flavors of the whisky, making it more mellow and easy to drink. This has been Lagavulins principal expression for more than 30 years.
