This Lagavulin whisky has been made more sweet by the influence of active oak. The strong smoky flavor has been mellowed and matured in previously used bourbon and refill casks, creating a rich and glossy aroma. You can expect to taste thick toffee, vanilla, and coconut flavors, with aromatic spices. The powerful peaty character has been tamed by the oak, resulting in a welcoming sweetness.
