About

Lagg represents a bold new voice in Scottish whisky, produced by Arran's contemporary distillery on the southern coast of the Isle of Arran. Despite its youth, the 2019 release demonstrates impressive maturity and complexity, with a characterful, heavily peated style that sets it apart from Arran's traditional profile. This is a whisky built for those seeking serious, no-nonsense peat and smoke. The nose greets you with smoky lemon pie aromatics, malted barley, and floral heather, balanced by citrus notes and a distinctive salty minerality. On the palate, an oily entry reveals earthy peat and black pepper, with caramel sauce, ginger, and hints of malt vinegar adding depth. The finish lingers with smoke, burnt oak, and lingering saltiness. This is a whisky that rewards contemplation and pairs beautifully with dark chocolate or smoked meats.
