Laphroaig 25 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

On the far edge of the Scotch whisky map, it's supposed that the art of distillation was first brought to Islay by Irish monks. Being remote, it’s an art that flourished in the hands of the islanders, whose illegal operations tested the resolve and means of the tax man. Eventually, the law relaxed, various whisky makers set up legitimate distilleries, among them a pair of farmers, Donald and Alexander Johnston, who in 1815 founded their distillery on the island’s south coast. Laphroaig, so called after its location, ‘broad hollow by the bay.’ It would remain in family hands for the next 139 years.

Laphroaig 25 Year Old is an uncommon and noteworthy non-chill filtered malt. With spirits aged in ex-bourbon casks, carefully matured for 25 years, the result is a subtle and elegant whisky featuring notes of sweet vanilla, oak and signature Islay peat smoke. The exceptional character of this expression, intertwined with Laphroaig’s signature flavours, makes it truly one to savour.
