Lagavulin 1979 Distillers Edition (Bottled 1997)

This highly collectible 1-litre bottling is a true piece of whisky history. Distilled in 1979 and bottled in 1997, this release marks the first-ever edition of Lagavulin launched under Diageo's acclaimed Distillers Edition series. It has since achieved legendary status among Islay single malt enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.

Key Features & Tasting Notes:

The Finish: While maintaining Lagavulin's signature intense peat smoke, this expression was finished in premium Pedro Ximénez (PX) Sherry casks. The double-maturation introduces a deep, velvety sweetness and rich dried-fruit complexity that perfectly counterbalances the coastal bonfire smoke.

The Profile: Expect a masterful harmony of intense peat, sea salt, and dark chocolate, layered with raisins, sticky dates, and warming festive spices.

Format: This particular release comes in a generous (1-Litre) bottle at 43% ABV, making it a rare find compared to standard 70cl editions.
