Lagavulin Distiller's Edition Scotch Whisky 2022
Lagavulin Distiller’s Edition 2022 is the annual double-matured expression from Lagavulin Distillery on the southern Islay coast — the heavily peated 16-year aged single malt given a secondary maturation in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, adding the intensely sweet, dark fruit, and raisin character of PX sherry to Lagavulin’s signature medicinal peat and maritime Islay character.
The Distiller’s Edition double maturation in PX casks produces one of the most unusual peat-and-sherry combinations in the Scotch category — the intensely sweet PX character counterbalancing the medicinal and assertive smoke of the distillery’s 16-year spirit. Browse all Lagavulin at Wooden Cork.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the PX finish affect Lagavulin’s character?
The Pedro Ximénez secondary maturation adds intensely sweet raisin, dark fruit, and molasses character to Lagavulin’s medicinal peat. The combination of maximum sweetness from PX and maximum smoke from Lagavulin produces an unusual and complex contrast that makes the Distiller’s Edition distinctively different from the standard 16 Year.
Is the 2022 Distiller’s Edition different from other years?
The Distiller’s Edition format is consistent year to year — Lagavulin 16 Year + PX double maturation — with slight character variations depending on the specific PX cask selection. The 2022 is the specific annual release.
