Lagavaulin 26 years, single malt

The jewel in the crown of ‘The King of Islay’ is  noble, generous and precious, understated  yet rich in subtle, smouldering intensity; truly  an exceptional gem of a whisky. This lovely, mature single vintage malt, the  first 26 year-old Lagavulin Special Release,  perfectly expresses the rich first-fill Pedro  Ximenez/Oloroso cask style and is quite  delicious, sure in the knowledge that its  balance and smooth tastes have been shaped  and respected by the decades.
