product Details

Lagavulin 25 Year Old Cask Strength 2002 Release

Lagavulin distillery is one of the quintessential Islay producers, built in the early 19th century before eventually finding itself in the hands of White Horse blenders and their infamous proprietor, Sir Peter Mackie. It has truly captured the imagination of the whisky world in modern times, with the 16 year old becoming an instant (if unexpected) favourite when introduced as one of United Distillers' Classic Malts in 1988. The company had not expected the smoky flavours to be as popular as lighter offerings such as Dalwhinnie and Glenkinchie. Lagavulin was also home to the legendary (and near mythical) Malt Mill distillery in the first half of the 20th century.

Distilled in 1977, this 25 year old Lagavulin was released in 2002 as part of the annual Diageo special releases. Perhaps unsurprisingly it is a stunning whisky and is very highly rated indeed.

One of 9,000.
