About
The Starward x Lagavulin Limited Edition is a unique collaboration between Australia's Starward distillery and the iconic Lagavulin distillery from Islay. This Australian single malt has been matured in red wine barrels and finished for 18 months in ex-Lagavulin casks, creating a distinctive character that merges rich Australian flavors with classic Islay peat and smoke influences. Bottled at 48% ABV, this edition offers an intense and complex tasting experience. On the nose, this whisky is dominated by typical Islay aromas of smoke and iodine, with subtle hints of dark chocolate and a briny undertone of green olives. The palate quickly reveals fruity barley notes, but it's the medicinal bitterness that lingers, making it an intriguing choice for enthusiasts of both Australian and Scottish single malts.
