Lagavulin 1991 21 Years Limited Edition Islay Single Malt Whisky Cask Strength 52.0% ABV - limited to 2.772 bottles of a great Islay Whisky
A much more limited edition 21 year old bottling and the second 21 year old ever bottled by the original distillers. This rare limited edition 21 year old from Islay legends Lagavulin was distilled in 1991, matured in first fill ex-sherry European oak casks and bottled at a natural cask strength 52% ABV in 2012. This is one of just 2.772 bottles that comes complete with well kept presentation case. Older expressions such as this are very rare, due equally to the limited distillation possible here and the high demand for regular bottlings. When a sister 21 year old distilled in 1985 and alsoo aged in first fill ex-sherry European oak casks was released, all 6.642 individually numbered bottles were sold in days. This time, there are just 2.772...
Splendid and complex, this mature malt delivers the expected Lagavulin intensity with elegance and style. The deep amber colour introduces a rich nose with raisin fruit and welcoming smoke. Soft red fruits appear, then the aromas grow sweet with buttery caramel. Full-bodied, smooth and richly enjoyable to drink, with notes of molasses, treacle toffee and toffee apple. The finish is complex and deep, with charred oak and fresh wood smoke, then sweet baked apples. Released as part of Diageo s Super Premium malts. Perhaps unsuprisingly it is a stunning whisky and is very highly rated indeed.
