Founded on Islay’s south [Kildalton] coast and situated between Ardbeg and Laphroaig, legal distilling was started at Lagavulin in 1816 by John Johnston. A second distillery shared the site, which was first bought by the same family in 1825, before production was absorbed into Lagavulin in 1837. Aged in oak casks for at least sixteen years, this much sought-after single malt has the massive peat-smoke that's typical of southern Islay – but also offering a dryness that turns it into a truly interesting dram.

Tasting Notes

Nose - Intensely flavoured, peat smoke with iodine and seaweed and a rich, deep sweetness.

Palate - Dry peat smoke fills the palate with a gentle but strong sweetness, followed by sea and salt with touches of wood.

Finish - A long, elegant peat-filled finish with lots of salt and seaweed. barrel-img

The best Islay

Lagavulin 16 is, in my humble opinion, the best Islay by far. It's wonderful smokey taste with a subtle peat undertone make it so wonderfully smooth and enjoyable.

Peaty Whisky

If you like a peaty whisky I consider that Lagavulin is probably the best that you can get. I have been drinking this for many years and wouldn't change at all.

Six Stars

Five stars just aren’t enough to describe how sublime Lagavullin 16 years old is. It’s the ultimate whisky and my all time favourite 🥃
