Lagavulin

The definitive Islay single malt, distilled since 1742

Legends take time

On the windswept Isle of Islay, a place that imbues everything with a robust character, the cherished Lagavulin whisky has been crafted for over 200 years in a small, picturesque bay. Lagavulin is intensely flavoured, smoky, and rich, reflecting the windswept Isle of Islay’s character.

Today, Lagavulin continues to captivate whisky enthusiasts with its deep, peaty profile and rich heritage, standing as a testament to the island’s whisky making legacy.
