This bottling is the second of three inaugural releases marking the launch of the very first bottlings from the Lagg Distillery. The whisky was matured for 30 months in ex-bourbon casks, finished for six months in ex-Rioja red wine casks, and is heavily peated.
Lagg is the second whisky distillery on the Isle of Arran in Scotland, UK, which was completed in 2019 and has the same owners as the first Arran distillery. The previous distillery was renamed from Arran to Lochranza (to reflect its location in the village of Lochranza). While Lochranza now only produces unpeated whiskies, Lagg only uses peated barley.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
