Lagavulin Grain & Embers 12 Year Old Special Releases 2025

A powerful, heavily peated Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured for 12 years, released as part of Diageo’s Special Releases 2025. It showcases Lagavulin’s signature maritime smoke layered with refined oak maturation, opening with aromas of bonfire smoke, iodine, sea salt, vanilla, and citrus peel, leading to a deep palate of charred wood, dark caramel, smoked dried fruits, black pepper, cocoa, and briny coastal minerality with a long, warming, smoky finish.

Food Pairing: Splendidly complements smoked brisket, grilled lamb chops, chargrilled oysters, aged cheddar, blue cheese, barbecue ribs, and dark chocolate desserts with sea salt or espresso.
