Lagavulin Kicks Off 200th Anniversary With 8-Year-Old Whisky | WhiskyCast
The whisky was matured primarily in ex-Bourbon casks, and is bottled at 48% ABV.
It will be available starting at the distillery in late March, European retailers in April, and will carry a recommended retail price of $64.99 in the US when it goes on sale in early summer. Morgan noted that the whisky is intended to be priced lower than the flagship Lagavulin 16-year-old single malt in every market where possible, though retailers will generally have the final say on pricing. “We wanted the anniversary to be something that could be celebrated by as many people as possible,” Morgan said.
