The Story
Scotch Whisky, 8 years old, produced by Lagavulin in Scotland. 0.70 l bottle. A whisky that embodies the soul of the island of Islay, with its unmistakable peaty and smoky character. The aromatic bouquet is very broad, but the defining note is undoubtedly salty, I'd say sea air, truly impressive. Very mineral and earthy, with hints of citrus notes, slightly spicy. On the palate, it is full-bodied, savory, and oily, combining salty notes, especially black pepper, with sweet notes of licorice, vanilla, and caramelized grapes. The discreetly long finish is all about notes of burnt wood and vanilla.
