- Description
- Lagavulin's 1993 distillation captures classic Islay peat character, then transforms through a Pedro Ximénez sherry cask finish that adds layers of dried fruit sweetness and vinous complexity to the smoke. Distilled in 1993 and bottled as part of the Distillers Edition series in 2009, this 16-year expression balances Lagavulin's maritime intensity with dessert-wine warmth. A collector's piece that shows how sherry cask finishing can enhance rather than mask Islay's distinctive character.
