Selected for their exceptional ability to accelerate oak maturation, the 125 litre Quarter Casks used for this release were re-made from ex-Bourbon barrels. Distillery Manager Graham Omand chose these casks to demonstrate how increased oak contact enhances the richness, sweetness and complexity of Lagg’s heavily peated spirit.
Matured for six years exclusively in Quarter Casks, this whisky reveals concentrated layers of vanilla, butterscotch and charred oak balanced by fragrant peat smoke and vibrant citrus notes. Bottled at 56% Vol, it is presented without chill-filtration or added colour.

Tasting Notes
Nose
An inviting wave of sweet peat followed by creamy vanilla, butterscotch and toasted oak. Bright citrus peel and orchard fruits emerge beneath the smoke, alongside sea spray, charred driftwood and a gentle herbal freshness.
Palate
Rich and full-bodied with an oily texture. Vanilla fudge is quickly enveloped by earthy peat smoke, cracked black pepper and warming oak spice. Notes of grilled lemon, toasted coconut and honeyed malt develop into hints of dark chocolate.
Finish
Long, warming and smoky. Lingering embers, charred oak and maritime salinity gradually soften into vanilla sweetness and a lasting citrus freshness.
