Lagavulin Grain & Embers Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year (750ml)

Product Description

Lagavulin Grain & Embers Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year 750ml is a striking limited-edition Islay release curated by blackbook for peat lovers who appreciate depth, texture, and contrast. This 12-year expression explores the interplay between Lagavulin’s signature smoky embers and a richer grain-driven sweetness—resulting in a whisky that feels both familiar and freshly expressive.

Aged for 12 years, Grain & Embers emphasizes smoldering peat smoke, coastal character, and warming spice, balanced by toasted grain notes and subtle sweetness that soften the edges. The profile leans into fire and warmth rather than sharp medicinal peat, delivering a rounder, more tactile Islay experience that rewards slow sipping.

At blackbook, we spotlight special Lagavulin releases that expand the house style without diluting its identity. Grain & Embers does exactly that—bold smoke, layered grain, and unmistakable Islay presence.
