Lagavulin 12 Year Old Fireside Tales, part of DIAGEO's 2024 Special Releases, "Spirited Xchange 2.0," is a unique reimagining of the legendary Islay whisky.

TASTING NOTES

Nose
Bold smoke quietened to a hush, matured in first-fill ex-Bourbon and refill casks for a lush and glazed aroma.

Palate
Experience a 12-year-old expression with thick toffee, vanilla, and coconut notes, unfurling with aromatic spice.

Finish
Long and satisfying. Lingering notes of dried fruits and honey fade into a pleasant oakiness. A subtle smokiness appears, accompanied by a warm, spicy tingle that slowly dissipates, leaving a pleasant dryness on the tongue.
