Lagg Single Malt Inaugural Releases 2022 - Batches 1, 2 & 3. 

Lagg Distillery is located at the southern end of the Isle of Arran and produces a range of heavily peated, modern and characterful Single Malt Whiskies. Production started in 2019, with the first recorded cut of spirit made on the 19th March of that year.  They now have the release of three inaugural, limited release bottlings from the distillery.

This new, Limited Release Lagg Whisky has been artfully crafted using Concerto malted barley, peated to 50ppm in the kiln and water from our own bore hole to produce a very characterful dram with notes of citrus, heather and bonfire smoke.

These lovely whiskies have been bottled un-chill filtered, without the additional of any colouring and at a higher strength of 50% ABV.
