Lagavulin 12 Years Special Release 2022 Single Malt Whisky 0.7L 57.3%
According to legend, the "King of Islay" experienced an extraordinary rebirth. A spark from the sun fell on the land and ignited flames which, when extinguished, enveloped the scorched earth in thick smoke. From the ashes grew new life, manifested in shimmering plumes of honeyed gold and deep purple. A majestic phoenix, its wings of fire stretching upwards, brought new life to the Lagavulin distillery and enhanced the spicy intensity of this whisky. Lagavulin, the site of numerous legends, once sat enthroned in a rocky cove that housed the castle of the Lords of the Isles. This castle, a symbol of past rule, gave the distillery increasing popularity - a king destined to rule. This prized Islay malt is made at the roots of distilling and carries an intense, smoky character that dates back to over two hundred years of history.
The Lagavulin 12 Years Special Release 2022 Single Malt Whisky 0.7L 57.3% presents itself in a shiny, shimmering gold and has a medium body. The aroma is dry and immediately permeated with intense smokiness, which is noticeably stronger compared to Lagavulin. Charcoal and fragrant peat dominate, accompanied by a clean, fresh base with hints of sea air and mineral nuances. These characteristics remain essentially unchanged even after reduction and the addition of water. The smooth, slightly oily texture of the whisky offers a sweet fullness. The taste starts sweet, then develops into a rising lemony acidity and is refreshed by a pinch of sea salt on the finish. In the mid-palate, the fire dries the flavour, enhancing the salty-smoky intensity and a touch of water brings a sweet note, with the smoke still dominant. The finish is long and marked by powerful waves of peat smoke as well as freshly ignited peaks of spicy and smoky intensity that linger beautifully in the aftertaste. This whisky experience is characterised by a remarkable balance between sweetness, freshness and smoky intensity.
