Distillery Bottling
A rare 1979 vintage (which is the first release in this series) of this Lagavulin classic.
(laga-VOO-lin) Lagavulin was officially founded in 1816 by John Johnston on Islay’s south coast near Port Ellen, though records suggest illicit distilling on the site as far back as the 1740s. Peter Mackie later became one of the most important figures in its history, using Lagavulin as a key part of White Horse and building the short-lived Malt Mill distillery within the grounds in 1908. Malt Mill was later absorbed back into Lagavulin, adding one of the more unusual chapters in the distillery’s history.
