Lagavulin is celebrating 25 years of the annual Islay Jazz Festival with an exclusive bottling, the Lagavulin Jazz 2023 15 Year Old, only available at the distillery.
The festival, presented by Jazz Scotland and Islay Arts Association, runs from the 15th – 17th September and features performances from some of Scotland’s most exciting and creative musicians.
“The Islay Jazz Festival is always a very exciting time for everyone on the island,” said Jordan Paisley, Distillery Manager at Lagavulin, in a prepared statement. “This year, to celebrate the festival, we’ve created a unique expression of Lagavulin that’s been influenced by the thriving Spanish jazz scene, finishing our whisky in Oloroso Sherry casks.
“The result is an exceptional bottling that introduces sweet, red-fruity notes, which are beautifully matched to Lagavulin’s signature smoke.”
Official tasting notes for Lagavulin Jazz 2023 15 Year Old indicate it carries “elegant, smooth dried fruit and walnut flavours. New depth of character and complexity comes to life as Lagavulin’s intense smoke meets the rich fruitiness from the sherry casks, delivering a twist on the classically smoky flavours of the iconic Islay distillery.”
