Description
The additional years spent resting in American oak lends notes of leather and vanilla, which complement the signature rich and smoky flavors that Laphroaig whisky is famous for.
A perfect example of how Laphroaig peated whisky ages and matures over time, this dram is an ideal choice for the long evenings of late summer as they transition into the cozy nights of fall.
Originally released with small number of bottles in 2015 to celebrate Laphroaig's 200 year anniversary in 2015. It was so well-received that they have now released another batch of this limited edition Scotch.
It makes an ideal gift for collectors and fans of our standard 10 year old single malt who want something a little more special.
Serve it neat, over ice or with a splash of water.
