Lagavulin "Fireside Tales" 12 Year Old, 2024 Special Release is part of Diageo's annual Special Releases collection, offering a softer, sweeter side of Islay's mightiest smoke. Matured in first-fill ex-bourbon and refill casks, it's bottled unchill filtered at natural cask strength, 57.4% ABV (114.8 proof).

What If Smoke Could Be Tamed Into Sweetness?

Lagavulin's Special Releases exist to explore a different side of the distillery's famously bold, peaty character. For 2024's "Fireside Tales," active first-fill bourbon oak brings glowing warmth to the whisky, tempering Lagavulin's signature smoke into gentler notes of toffee and vanilla. It's peaty Lagavulin DNA, softened without losing its identity.

A 12 Year Cask Strength Islay Malt

Aged 12 years and bottled at its natural cask strength with nothing added, this release skips dilution entirely, delivering Lagavulin's full intensity exactly as it came out of the cask. It's part of a Special Releases tradition now in its fifteenth consecutive year for the Lagavulin 12.

Tasting Notes

  • Character: smoky and sweet, with glowing embers of peat tamed into toffee and vanilla warmth.
  • Aroma: lush, glazed sweetness layered over classic Islay smoke.
  • Palate: rich and full, balancing cask strength intensity with newfound sweetness.

How to Enjoy It

Enjoy it neat to take in its full cask strength character, or add a few drops of water to open up additional layers of toffee and vanilla sweetness. It also holds up well on the rocks for a slower, cooler sip.
