About Lagavulin 8Yr
Lagavulin 8 Year Old is an Islay single malt Scotch whisky produced by Diageo that delivers the full Lagavulin experience in a younger, more approachable expression. At 48% ABV, this whisky balances bold peat and smoke with surprising sweetness and complexity, making it ideal for both seasoned Islay enthusiasts and those new to peated whiskies. Aged in American oak, it offers more vanilla and honey notes than traditional Lagavulin expressions while maintaining the distillery's signature maritime peat character. At $56.24 for a 750ml bottle, it represents excellent value in the premium Scotch category, offering depth and character typically found in older, more expensive drams.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Immediately soft with clean, fresh notes of milk chocolate and lemon, developing into fragrant tea-scented smoke with maritime aromas. Additional notes include briny salt, ripe pear, dried apricot, and a distinctive kippery peat character reminiscent of toasted multigrain bread with clover honey.
👅 Palate
Unflinchingly smoky with a heavy, extinguished campfire quality balanced by sweet malt character and pear candy notes. The palate features salty, iodine-forward flavors with hints of apple peel, dark chocolate, and a creamy sweetness that creates remarkable harmony between smoke, vanilla, and dried fruits.
✨ Finish
Clean, very long, and smoky with subtle minted smoke surrounding chocolate tannins. The finish is warming and dry, with sweet smoke lingering on the breath and a pleasant ashy character that persists for an extended period.
