Master Distiller John Campbell has hand selected the best batches in the Laphroaig warehouse and then delivered a single malt whisky with exceptional flavour. The spirit in all casks has been matured in first -fill ex-American white oak bourbon barrels. The spirit has then been re-casked into European oak barrels and left to further mature.

The flavours evident in this single malt are incredible, from medicinal peat, to soft and spicy caramel tones of the American wood. Then there’s the richness of the American oak. It is unchill-filtered and bottled at 48% abv.

Official Tasting Notes

Colour: Burnt Orange

Nose: Starting with rich sweetness of figs, moving into a floral flavour of lavender and black pepper developing into sweet natural honey notes

Body: An intense and profound depth

Palate: Very peppery, spicy also liquorice root with a slight saltiness. Moving to gentle oak tannins, lovely orange peel and then a dry earthiness

Finish: Lovely creamy walnuts enveloped by the very distinct Laphroaig peatiness that lasts and lasts
