Lagavulin 8 Year Old 200th Anniversary Scotch Whisky
Released to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the founding of Lagavulin distillery by John Johnston in 1816, this eight-year-old is big and smoky, with sweet spice that becomes apparent with a drop of water. Inspired by the visit of Alfred Barnard to the distillery in the 1880's when he tried an 'exceptionally fine' eight-year-old from the distillery, this is a fitting tribute for the milestone.

O. obey San Dionisio Ocotepec, while the snake represents the eternal cycle of life and death, alluding the process of mezcal production.
