Lagavulin 12 year old Single Malt Whisky 700ml
Backed by an elusive softly fruity tang of bruised pears or mature
white wine the top notes are naturally powerfully peaty and fresh-clean,
with peat smoke, wood tar and antiseptic cream. Maritime hints that seem to
emerge from within them suggest a walk on the beach in a fresh, salty sea
breeze, with wafts of sweet seaweed and hemp rope. A drop of water
suppresses the fruity notes and introduces the clean, fresh aromas of a
mineral oil or a salt water rock pool. Spicy, smoky, warming and drying,
with a deep intensity. There's a pleasingly smoky aftertaste with a warming
spiciness, which is calmed by the addition of water.
