Lagavulin 2007 Special Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old · 1995 Vintage

Colour

Deep, dark amber with copper highlights and mahogany edges, a rich sherry-warmed glow.

Nose

Powerful coastal peat and smoke rise, carrying medicinal iodine and sea-salt notes, bound by lacquered oak. Beneath, sherry-cask dark fruit—raisin and fig—emerge with cocoa and toffee, while leather and ash lend sophistication. Bold, warm, and deeply mineral, it invites quiet contemplation.

Palate

Opulent, peaty and coastal, with bold smoke and iodine. Sherry-cask influence brings dark fruit, treacle and a hint of cocoa, woven with leather. Full-bodied and creamy, it coats the mouth before a long, peppery finish that lingers with maritime complexity.

Finish

Long, smoke-kissed and maritime, the finish lingers with Lagavulin peat and sea salt, slowly unfolding into sherry-dark fruit—fig, prune and dried cherry—accented by cocoa and spice. A warm, resinous oak glow remains, fading to a coastal mineral echo and a final ember of smoky sweetness.
