Tasted as Day 21 of The Saratoga Whiskey Club Advent Calendar 2023. Every day is a new adventure with a blind tasting, where we each try to guess the country of origin, the type and age of the whisk(e)y, the ABV, and the type of barrel/cask used for maturation, followed by a reveal at 9PM. This whisky was matured in ex-Bourbon and finished in Sherry Casks. Lagg Distillery, on the Isle of Arran, is owned by Isle of Arran distillery. Lagg makes peated whisky and Isle of Arran makes unpeated whisky. Photo courtesy of Charles Grabitzky.
