Originally released as a part of the 200th Anniversary in 2016, this 8 Years Old has now become a part of the permanent core releases. As Alfred Barnard (author of The Whisky Distilleries of the United Kingdom) said of an 8 year old Lagavulin in the 1880s, this whisky is "exceptionally fine". The nose is soft, with milk chocolate and lemon and the palate is a magnificiently full-on Lagavulin.
