Producer Information: Lagavulin Distillery
Lagavulin Distillery, nestled on the windswept southern coast of Islay, Scotland, traces its roots to 1816 when John Johnston established the site amid a cluster of illicit stills. The distillery’s identity is deeply tied to Islay’s peaty landscape and maritime climate, which infuse their single malt Scotch whiskies with signature smoky intensity and briny complexity. Lagavulin’s slow distillation process and use of heavily peated malted barley set it apart within the Islay whisky category, emphasizing depth and balance over raw power. While Lagavulin focuses exclusively on whisky production rather than diversifying into other spirits or wines, its parent company Diageo manages a portfolio that includes other celebrated Scotch brands such as Talisker from Skye and Oban from the west coast mainland, each reflecting their own distinct regional character.

Scotch whiskey, a distinguished spirit originating from Scotland, is primarily made from malted barley for single malts and grains for blended varieties. This iconic drink undergoes a meticulous distillation process using pot stills for single malts and column stills for grain whiskies, followed by an aging period of at least three years in oak casks, often previously used for bourbon or sherry. The result is a diverse range of flavors and aromas that reflect the unique characteristics of its regions of origin.
Single malt Scotch typically boasts rich and complex flavors with notes of fruit, spice, smoke, peat, and oak, while blended Scotch offers a smoother profile with balanced hints of caramel, vanilla, and light smoke. The texture can vary significantly—from smooth and creamy to rich and oily—depending on the style. Scotch whiskey is versatile in its consumption; it can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks and serves as a key ingredient in classic cocktails like the Rob Roy or Blood & Sand.
