Lagavulin 12 Year Old Fireside Tales is a 2024 Diageo Special Release, a cask strength Islay single malt bottled at 57.4% ABV.
It matured partly in first-fill bourbon casks, a rarity for Lagavulin, and shows the peaty Lagavulin character made sweeter and softer. Whisky Advocate scored it 93.
It is not as boldly peated as expected, with a vertical, pure profile.
