The Lagg 2019 Inaugural Release Ex-Rioja Charred Red Wine Cask Finish Batch 3 is an extraordinary whisky that showcases the craftsmanship of the Lagg Distillery, located on the picturesque Isle of Arran in the Islands region. Distilled in 2019 and bottled in 2022, this limited edition release comprises only 10,000 bottles. The whisky is a heavily peated masterpiece with a peat level of 50 PPM, offering an intriguing blend of flavors and aromas. This unique spirit is matured for 30 months in ex-bourbon casks and finished for an additional 6 months in ex-red wine charred casks previously used to age Rioja wine. Crafted from malted Concierto barley and peat sourced from North East Scotland, this whisky is non-chill filtered and bottled at a robust 50% ABV. Upon pouring, the whisky reveals a deep complexity with earthy peat, minerality, and a hint of oak on the nose. The palate is rich and herbaceous, featuring a dark fruit sweetness intertwined with wafts of peat smoke. A pinch of salt graces the finish, leaving a lasting impression. This exquisite edition is one of the highly anticipated inaugural releases from the Lagg Distillery.
