A collaboration between one of Islay's most legendary distilleries and Nick Offerman — actor, woodworker, and devoted Scotch enthusiast — the Lagavulin Offerman Edition 11 Year Old is an Islay Single Malt matured for 11 years and finished in charred American oak casks, adding a distinctive bourbon-influenced sweetness to Lagavulin's iconic peaty character. Carrying on a 200-year tradition of distilling excellence, this is Lagavulin with a uniquely American twist.
