Inspired by the pull of the Northern Lights that illuminate the skies of Islay, the incredibly special ‘Lagavulin Skies of Fèis Ìle’ bottling echoes the magnetic power of this iconic Islay distillery. Set to captivate Lagavulin fans with its luminously deep amber hue and intense fruity notes, this unique expression has been on a 29-year journey to the bottle.
First filled into ex-bodega European oak butts back in May 1995 and left to mature for around two decades, it was transferred into a heavily charred Amoroso-seasoned American oak hogshead for its final eight years of maturation.

Official Tasting Notes

Lagavulin can be found to the south of the beautiful island is Islay in the village of the same name. It was founded in 1816 by John Johnston who built two distilleries at the same site. After Johnston’s passing in 1836 the two distilleries were merged forming Lagavulin which was then acquired by Alexander Graham a wine and spirits merchant.
The distillery is now owned by industry giant’s Diageo it is well know for its heavily-peated single malt whisky. Lagavulin whisky is popular worldwide and a favourite of many whisky fans for its smoky coastal influences. The distilled spirit is predominately matured in ex-bourbon casks which helps in highlighting these smoky flavours. There are roughly 5000 casks maturing on-site, the new production is taken to be aged on the mainland. Lagavulin was on of six whiskies to be showcased in Diageo’s ‘Classic Malts of Scotland’ selection which helped to boost the popularity of the brand.
