What makes this whisky a “last”:ÿThis is a cherished Lagavulin, from the distillery’s last 1997 casks, “winter whisky’ distilled on February 25th.
Why was this bottle chosen as part of the fourth release of Prima & Ultima:ÿThe final memory of a golden year at the distillery, 1997, when third generation distillery manager Mike Nicolson was custodian of the Lagavulin legacy. This is Lagavulin as it should be, mature, rich and in its pomp, a beautifully rounded example of the power and majesty of this Islay malt.
Dr Emma Walker’s (Master Blender) thoughts on this bottling:ÿ”The very first malf whisky she tried was a Lagavulin and its spectacular qualities enticed her to enter the world of whisky.”
