Product description

The Laphroaig Oak Select Single Malt Whisky contains proportions of all known Laphroaig bottlings (10 years, PX Cask, Quarter Cask and Triple Wood). The combination of the different casks and bottlings creates a harmonious balance between peat smoke, vanilla, honey and slightly earthy flavours. Ian Hunter, the last of the founding family, visited the bourbon distilleries in Kentucky around 70 years ago to learn their ageing techniques. Up to this point, all the casks were from Europe, which resulted in a much sweeter Laphroaig. Hunter had a selection of ex-bourbon casks shipped to Scotland so that he could test these casks on his whisky. This is the beginning of Laphroaig as we know it.

The Distillery: Laphroaig

Laphroaig (pronounced 'La-froig') means 'the beautiful hollow by a broad bay' in Gaelic. The area around the distillery, which is located on the remote island of Islay (pronounced 'Ei-la') off the west coast of Scotland, is just as beautiful. Laphroaig Whiskies are considered the most smoky-intense malt Whiskies from Scotland. read more
