Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky | Aged 11 Years | First-Fill Ex-Bourbon Cask Matured | 43% ABV (86 Proof) | 750mL

Process & Profile

Lagavulin 11 Year Sweet Peat Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a limited-edition Islay malt that spotlights Lagavulin’s signature smoke through a sweeter, oak-forward lens. This expression is matured for 11 years exclusively in first-fill American oak ex-bourbon casks, a key detail that helps shape its profile: classic Lagavulin peat and coastal character layered with brighter vanilla-driven sweetness and rounded oak. Bottled at 43% ABV, Sweet Peat is built to feel approachable without losing the distillery’s unmistakable identity—smoke stays central, but the cask selection leans into softer sweetness, gentle fruit, and polished structure.
