About Lagavulin
Lagavulin is a heavily peated Islay single malt distillery founded in 1816 on a site where illicit distilling had gone on for decades. Its 16-year-old expression is among the most recognised peated whiskies, and long fermentation and slow distillation give it its characteristic weight.
