Lagavulin 16 year is an Islay icon, revered for its deep peat smoke, rugged coastal influences, and layers of earthy complexity. Whether enjoyed neat to capture its raw essence, softened over ice to reveal hidden sweetness, or as the foundation for bold, smoky cocktails, Lagavulin reflects the enduring spirit of Islay in every sip.
Neat
Showcasing Depth and Terroir
“A dram of Lagavulin neat is not just a drink; its a slow walk through a windswept Islay shore, where smoke clings to the air, oak speaks in whispers, and every sip carries the soul of the sea and time itself.”—Jordan Paisley, Distillery Manager
Rocks
Evolving the Experience
“Lagavulin on the rocks is fire meeting ice, the bold smoky heart tamed just enough to reveal its quiet depths, where peat, sea salt, and time unfold slowly, like a storm learning to whisper.” —Jordan Paisley, Distillery Manager
Cocktails
Lagavulin Highball
Lagavulin 16 year old over clear ice with chilled soda and a Meyer lemon twist or thyme accent. Elemental, smoky, and precise—this Highball offers a restrained, aromatic take on Islay’s power.
Lagavulin Spicy Sour
Lagavulin 16 year old’s signature peat finds new life in this smoky, citrus-forward riff on a Margarita. Balanced heat from jalapeño agave syrup adds layered depth without masking the whisky’s bold character—a modern, flavorful twist that’s both familiar and unmistakably Islay.
