Lagavulin 12yr Special Release 2023 Single Malt Scotch

#3 - Whisky Advocate Top 20 Whiskies of 2024

Thick wisps of aromatic herbal smoke honor the ancient art of tattooing, clouds that slowly disperse in whispers of stories. The sweet scent of ripe plums lingers, as smoky black ink etches an outline of illustrious past generations ascending to legendary heights. Each work of art is a map of historic victories, imprinted on a living canvas.

Inspired by the spirit of intensity and pride that shines through a Lagavulin history more than 200 years long, Lagavulin's Malt Master explores the famed symbols of the ancient Mesoamerican art of tattoo, rich in story and significance. The whiskey, finished in Don Julio Anejo tequila casks, pulses with herbal flavors ancient and modern, engraving an indelible story.

Amid fierce glints of gold, fresh notes of sea air, citrus and ripened berries mingle with intense herbal smoke in an enchanted swirl of heady aromas, while the creamy-smooth and robust texture plays perfect canvas to a rich palette of swirling flavors. Sweet with juicy plums and a hint of saltiness, then ever more herbal and smokier, the flavors deep-etch their impression for a lip tingling whiskey of legends.
