One of the classic Islay single malt whiskies. The Lagavulin distillery was founded in 1816 on the south-west coast of whisky island Islay. After a few changes of ownership, Lagavulin came into the hands of one Peter Mackie, the creator of the White Horse blended whisky. From 1890 on, Lagavulin became an important component of that blend.
Like every distillery in Scotland, Lagavulin had its ups and downs. Such as a period in the 1980s that the distillery was only active 2 days a week due to low demand, or that due to a growing demand in the 1990s, too few 16-year-old Lagavulin was in stock.
This bottling from Jack Wiebers is especially for the Dutch market. The story of Droppie can be read in detail on the back label. In Dutch. The bottle itself contains a 9-year-old undisclosed Islay single malt whisky matured in a sherry cask. (51.6%)
Lagavulin 16 is an example of how a long distillation process and long maturing contribute to a high-quality single malt. With this bottling, Lagavulin sets a standard: a perfect balance between peat smoke, maritime tones and sherry aromas. At 43%.
