SCYFOOD > Whisky Lagavulin 1976 Cask Strength 37 Year Old Contact Customer Service ENQUIRY Lagavulin distillery is one of the quintessential Islay producers, built in the early 19th century before eventually finding itself in the hands of White Horse blenders and their infamous proprietor, Sir Peter Mackie. It has truly captured the imagination of the whisky world in modern times, with the 16 year old becoming an instant (if unexpected) favourite when introduced as one of United Distillers' Classic Malts in 1988. The company had not expected the smoky flavours to be as popular as lighter offerings such as Dalwhinnie and Glenkinchie. Lagavulin was also home to the legendary (and near mythical) Malt Mill distillery in the first half of the 20th century. A very well aged Lagavulin, this was released in late 2013 as part of Diageo's annual Special Releases. This was distilled in 1976 and matured in refill American oak and European oak casks, yielding 1,868 bottles. Bottled Strength: 51% Bottle Size: 70cl
