Lagavulin, a Diageo-owned Islay Scotch brand, recently unveiled its new, retail-exclusive 10-year-old whiskey that boasts a maturation process that takes place in three different cask types including refill, Bourbon and freshly charred casks.

The new alcohol is described as “sweet and salty at first, before it builds to a fiery crescendo with a spicy and smoky finish." The whiskey is ideal for consumers seeking an exceptionally flavorful whiskey that can be enjoyed on the rocks or as a key ingredient in specialty cocktails.
The Lagavulin 10 Year Old is available at select retailers for $60 USD per 700 ml bottle.
