Lagg Inaugural Release Batch 1 Bourbon Cask Bot.2022 Whisky 700ml

The first of three inaugural releases from Lagg Distillery on Arran – the first whiskies to be released by the distillery. This inaugural inaugural edition is all about the distillery character, using bourbon-cask maturation to add soft toffee and spicy character to the underlying smoky and fruity spirit.

Nose Earthy peat and crumbly vanilla fudge tangle, with a touch of menthol creeping beneath.

Palate Oily with silky caramel, charred sugar, and biscuity malt balancing rich, vegetal peat smoke. Some pebbly grist arrives beneath, joined by herbaceous spice.

Finish Chewy peat lingers with a touch of iodine, while butterscotch and vanilla pod remain in play.
