Lagavulin 1979

There are only a few malts that are as complex and smoky as Lagavulin.

Even rarer are bottlings of this distillery from independent bottlers. Here it was once again the name Jim McEwan, who opened the doors to the Lagavulin warehouse.

This filling begins sweetly and then unfolds with force its sharpness and peatiness.

Jim Murray, the whiskey author u. Critic writes about him: "Lagavulin is to be treated with caution, but reverence, this is not a malt to sip lightly - it devours one!"
