Producer

Producer

The Lagavulin distillery, located on the Isle of Islay, benefits from a temperate oceanic climate, perfect for growing barley. Sea breezes influence the taste of the whiskies, adding a unique saline dimension. The peaty soil gives Lagavulin its famous smoky notes. Every stage of production, from malting to distillation, is carried out on-site, guaranteeing complete quality control. The distillery is surrounded by breathtaking scenery, where nature and the art of distillation intertwine.

Owner and history

The Lagavulin distillery is part of the Diageo group, a world leader in the spirits industry. This owner has preserved Lagavulin's heritage and authenticity while investing in sustainable practices. The passionate teams who work here perpetuate the tradition, ensuring that each bottle reflects the Islay terroir and a commitment to excellence. Their attention to detail and respect for traditional methods are at the heart of Lagavulin's global renown.

Vinification and aging

Lagavulin Distillers Edition is crafted using traditional methods, with careful malting of the barley followed by slow fermentation to develop deep aromas. Distillation takes place in copper pot stills, promoting optimal flavor extraction. Maturation in sherry casks, after aging in bourbon casks, adds further richness and complexity. This double maturation is essential to creating the perfect harmony between the peat and the sweet notes of the sherry, offering unparalleled balance.

The team's opinion

An intensely peated Lagavulin, enhanced by a sherry finish bringing a rich and chocolatey depth.
