Lagavulin1993 - Single Malt Whisky - Prima & Ultima Third Release

70cl / 50.1% ABV

Lagavulin  1993 Prima & Ultima Third Release

A prized Lagavulin, from the last two 1993 casks, filled in the year the distillery won the first of an avalanche of international awards. It was the start of a golden era, a success that owed much to an Islay legend, Manager Grant Carmichael. A Lagavulin at its mature peak with redcurrant fruitiness on the nose, soon overcome by the maritime scents of sea salt and sweet seaweed. Lightly oily, the smooth texture delivers a long mellow finish, a gloriously rich and rounded whisky.

Palate

Lightly oily and smooth in texture. An immediately sweet and lightly spicy start with winey fruit, a balancing pinch of salt and soon, appreciable pepper and smoke flooding through. Rich in style, with drying oak tannins and lightly drying later.

Finish

Long, with a deep peppery smokiness: slightly mouth-cooling, with more smoke in the peaty aftertaste.
