- Description
- Lagavulin's 8-year-old captures the distillery's signature peat character in a younger, more vibrant expression bottled at 48% ABV. Despite its youth, the spirit demonstrates the briny, smoky foundation that defines Islay while maintaining a brighter, more spirited profile than its aged counterparts. This works well as an introduction to full-strength Lagavulin or as a refreshing pour for those seeking peat without heaviness.
