Lagavulin Spicy Ember
Cocktail Recipe

Smoky
Nutty
Spiced

Spicy Ember is a whisky cocktail that combines the deep peat smoke of Lagavulin 16 with the aromatic spice of chai tea and the smooth, nutty sweetness of orgeat. Stirred and served over ice, it delivers a rich, balanced profile, lifted by a squeeze of orange for a fresh, fragrant finish.
