Lagavulin's 2022 Special Release 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a bold, peaty single malt aged for 12 years. Nicknamed "The Flames of the Phoenix," this whisky boasts intense smoke and spice notes, perfect for fans of Islay malts who crave a powerful dram.

Description

This special Lagavulin release lives up to its fiery namesake. 

Aroma

Powerful smoke dominates the nose, with hints of charcoal, medicinal peat, and a touch of sea air. This is not for the faint of heart; it’s a classic Lagavulin expression turned up to eleven.

Palate

The first sip delivers an explosion of smoke, spice, and sweetness. Expect flavors of bonfire embers, bacon, and even a hint of popcorn, all balanced by a surprising underlying sweetness of lemon and toffee. The influence of the virgin oak casks comes through with a touch of black pepper and ginger heat.

Finish

Long and intense, the finish is dominated by smoke and lingering hints of chili peppers, brine, and earthy notes. A touch of sweetness remains, creating a complex and unforgettable aftertaste.
