развернуть подробно

В отзывах виски описывается как более сладкий и комплексный по сравнению с классическим 16-летним Lagavulin, с сочетанием торфа, дыма и шери. Отмечаются ноты ирисок, тёмных фруктов, дыма, морских и йодистых оттенков, а также длительный финиш. Некоторые отзывы указывают на хороший баланс и приятную мягкость, тогда как другие говорят о недостатке баланса, глубины и водянистости, а также о том, что шери может маскировать комплексность. Часть отзывов упоминает, что виски выиграл бы от более высокой крепости.

First a sweet toffee and then peat and smoke. Well this is definitely not the 16yo common Lagavullin, this DE is much sweeter and a bit more complex and well it costs a "little" bit more. I like it, it`s more fullbodied and complex.

This is not bad whisky, but there are so many much better Lagas out there. For me one of the weakest editions I tasted so far. Lacks balance, beauty, depth - I recommend to go gor 4/501 that one is very very good and (if you can still find bottles) excellent value.

Drochaid Connoisseur 89 01 mar 2017 9:17 pm

Bottled in 2012, this 1996 edition of Lagavulin's Distillers Edition (probably the most sought after in the range) combines the regular rich, peat smoke that the distillery is known for with a finishing period in sweet Pedro Ximenez sherry casks for even more depth of flavour. (TWE)

This vintage gives a nice combination of fruity and peaty flavours. It would be interesting if they would bottle this at cask strength. Value for money bottling..

The_Osprey Expert Senior 83 19 sep 2021 3:08 pm

Lagavulin Distillers Edition 1996 - 2012. 25ml sample at home, July 2021. Dark orange. Aroma is burnt orange peel, fairly airy, apple and soft smoke. Burnt paper. Taste is watery, fairly thin, low impact on the palate, has a very slow build towards the finish - very slow. On the swallow the faintest smoke comes through. Just very low impact throughout - I get the impression you'd need to drink 75ml of before you start tasting it properly. Breathy burnt wood, smoke. Sort of a bit milky and muted. It's a good enough whisky but it seems like the life has been engineered out of it a bit. Water and caramel colouring with some decent chill filtered whisky added. 3.475/83

Outstanding malt for sure, but not in my Top5 of the best sherry-peat-whiskys. Yet absoluty worth buying.

WillemvdK Expert Senior 86 26 jan 2015 10:09 am

Excellent drinking whisky for your peaty moment. Would gain a lot of points if it had a higher ABV... Potentially a 90+ imo... Tasted with Whiskyclub Spakenburg on 24th of January 2015

Alex Connoisseur 88 25 apr 2015 6:08 am

sherry, red fruits, peat smoke and just the right amount of sweetness, all married in perfect balance. On the palate I hoped for more peat smoke and "more weight". Overall, less bold and less sweet than previous versions, such as the 1994 for reference

Gaija Expert Senior 88 16 nov 2016 1:06 am

Excellent daily dram, really. Autumnal. Wish it was bottled at a higher proof though, because the profile's really lovely. Needs much of your time to unlock its full charms, hidden behind a seemingly inoffensive forestian profile.

Wilhelm58 Member Senior 90 05 sep 2022 7:48 pm

A great whisky!!! The taste is better, compared with newer variants of distillers edition. This Distillers edition is the last version with old packaging, which is more beautiful i think!

I started with salami and ended with smoked mackerel, but between these two components flashed the salty tones of the cold sea and iodine, dried, spoiled prunes, figs and dried apricots, dried grapes and marshmallows. Industrial notes, machine oil, candle stub.

very coastal (salty) and a taste of liquorice.

Here are my tasting notes: Color: Amontillado sherryNose: Smoked salmon, truffle oil, honey suckle, medium cheddar, black strap rum, cream. .Palate: Dates, vanilla bean, cigar wrapper, dark chocolate, espresso bean, pinot noir, sea salt, a little seaweed.Finish: fairly long. Savory aspects in the palate blend into dark chocolate and fermented Honduran cigar wrapper.

lachaineduwhisky Expert Senior — 13 jun 2018 9:26 am

On the nose, peat and pepper, then cereals. Fairly light, from memory the others were more massive on the nose. Very subtle vinous touch from the finish in sherry casks. In the mouth, peaty, dry, relatively monolithic, but without defects. It may be more greedy, but the influence of sherry is reduced to a minimum in the mouth. Enthusiasm 3/5

Kilo1 Expert Senior 85 03 jul 2020 2:10 pm

Earthen, new leather belt, peach-cherry tobacco for peasant divorced in water (raw). Taking a breath a little deeper, peach pulp soaked in sugar syrup appears, with a deep breath only fruits, finograd, light summer wine, soaked apples, raisins remain. Taste: Iodine, a tree drenched in tar, frozen in the rain, sweet smoky coal, sleepers heated by the sun and salt. Sweet vanilla at the same time. Aftertaste: Long, even long, marine, iodide slightly sweet-tart, light smoked. Conclusion: It seemed to me that a lot of iodine and salt in the aftertaste in this regard, he upset me a little. But the aroma is interesting and developing it I really want to enjoy.

A little surprised by this character "coastal", which erases a little sherry, also feeling that there is a bit too much bitterness. Good product though.

Palindrome Expert Senior 90 28 jan 2015 5:12 am

Nose: Smoked salmon, white truffles, honey comb, Chinese pepper, and, at last, the scent of campfire smoke on one's clothes after a few nights in the woods. Palate: Dates, vanilla bean, fermented cigar wrapper, pinot noir, smoked black salt, "Elephant ears" (cinnamon/sugar fried dough common at state fairs in Western states of the US). Finish: Long as the waking memory of a dream that one has considered deeply enough that one's brain will not let go. Mine! The palate straightens out into a sweet white chocolatey confection and then descends back into the glowing embers of a potbelly stove ushering in the shorter nights of winter. Final comments: The balance of this scotch is perhaps its greatest asset.

Нос	87	A light fruitiness, together with a nuance of Laga peat and maritime hints. Not very intense, more subtle.
Вкус	91	In the mouth you notice that you have an older distillate. Very slightly musty, but it fits in well. Not feeling alcohol. Very pleasant and stimulating.
Финиш	89	Long, a maritime note. Over time, lightly add chocolate. More from sip to sip.

A great nose, then a bit bitter and watery. Very nice, soft smoky note with sherry. Lagavulin, more generally, in my opinion rather overrated. No bad, but no outstanding whiskys. Except for the special releases 12yo.

Short comparison with a Lagavulin 16yo [WB: 210887] To what extent that makes sense remains to be seen ;-) But I still found it interesting, even if not really surprising. The Laga 16 is more of a better, newer batch. Compared to the old Distillers Edition, however, the smoke seems considerably more present, fresher, and more intense. In comparison, the DE is almost subdued and more of an undertone. The stronger cask influence is also noticeable, but for me, it's never too dominant. Overall, the DE seems more elegant and also older. The 16, in comparison, is simpler and quite straightforward. So, the old DE wins here quite clearly. He comes across as more mature and confident, while the 16-year-old seems wilder and rougher. The DE is really tasty, but the 16 isn't bad either.

Corso_theRed Expert Senior 93 20 jan 2014 12:42 pm

A pretty epic whisky in my book. I don’t have comparative experience with older bottlings of this, but supposedly they vary very little and are continuously high quality. If you like medicinal peat smoke, sweetness, and hours of nosing and tasting fun, this is definitely for you!

Tom na Gruagaich Connoisseur 85 07 feb 2019 10:19 pm

Aromatic smoke and sweet sherry. Maybe the sherry sticks to the complexity, but it's always a treat.
