Lagavulin 12 Year Old
Posted on 05. Mar, 2010 by admin in The Whiskies
The Lagavulin 12 Year Old Single Islay Malt Whisky is a great release by Lagavulin and seasoned fans of the whisky brand delight at it.
It was aged for 12 years in refill American oak casks and then bottled at its natural cask strength of 59.9% ABV. It’s pungent smoky and maritime aromas and taste are best appreciated with two parts still water to one part whisky if you are to believe what they say, but again this is purely subjective. At the Malt Maniacs Awards in 2009 it was silver award winner which illustrates how well received this Islay 12 Year Old is. Not as much of a charmer as its older brother, but more exciting, and sufficiantly different to be worthy of spending money on.
