1997 Lagavulin Distillers Edition Double Matured Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - Old bottling

Islay, SCOTLAND
$240.00 Bottle
$2,880.00 Dozen
  • ABV 43%

Reported to be one of the all time great Distiller's Editions from Lagavulin (but has there ever been a bad one?)
One bottle only. This was on the market circa 2013.

Other reviews... Colour: full gold. Nose: well, they haven’t lost the recipe. Perfect Lagavulinness with an added layer of herbal teas – and plenty of them. Lime blossom, verbena (huge, really), wild thyme, then rather tobacco, mint-flavoured green tea Moroccan-style, fennel... Then the coastal jamboree, seaweed, seashells… Then a little ham, as usual. What I don’t find, and that I used to find in earlier versions, is a certain rubberiness. So this one is rather a cleaner one. Mouth: I really hate it that a finishing would work so well. Tobacco, artisan chocolate, kippers, Corinthian raisins, chlorophyll, liquorice, dried figs… Even the body’s quite perfect, but I’m sure it would be even more perfect at Talisker strength. Another impeccable one. Finish: long and rather on a blend of tar liqueur with crème de menthe. The mint makes it clean and fresh, which works a treat. After Eights! Comments: this is so brilliantly done! And I hate PX… 90 points - Serge Valentin, whiskyfun.com
