This Single Malt from the Scottish distillery Lagavulin matured for 16 years in American oak barrels and then in sherry barrels Pedro Ximenez before being bottled to 43%. Intense, peaty, fruity, Lagavulin Distillers Edition benefits from a finish in Pedro Ximenez casks, a noble grape variety of Sherry that gives its name to a sweet and dark wine, processed from the grapes dried in the sun. This ageing conveys even more sweetness and smoothness to the spirit, with notes of raisins and figs. The powerful and complex nature of Lagavulin and its distinctive smoky features match perfectly the sweetened accents of sun-dried grapes given by the casks. To craft the Distillers Edition Single Malts, each one of the Classic Malts distillery selects a few matured casks that will undergo a second maturation in Sherry, Port, or Montilla wine casks. When reaching bottling age, each Classic Malt undergoes an Iberian Peninsula cask finish for another 6 months, and then becomes a Distillers Edition.

Lagavulin always has that warm rich flavour, and the Distillers Edition is always worth the wait. I'd like to collect them but can never resist openening the bottle.

Niceeeeeeeeeee
I was adding the 2022 version to my collection but they have stopped dating the bottles. Disappointing
A sweeter, richer take on the modern classic that is the 16-year-old.
I am a great fan of Lagavulin, especially the 16 year old. It has great depth of flavour and maturity to the palate. Last year, at the distillery, I bought a bottle of a 2018 distillery bottling and it was magnificent. However this 2022 distillers edition was somewhat disappointing. It (to my palate) lacked the depth and maturity of taste I’ve come to expect of Lagavulin. Perhaps it was the double maturation in oak casks that took out some of the peat flavour I love.I’m glad I bought it, and will enjoy drinking it - but it hasn’t quite lived up to my expectations.
I thoroughly enjoyed drinking this whisky lots of flavour and very full bodied. I fine whisky from the Lagavulin distillery
