Laphroaig The Cask Legacy Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

"...a sherry butt away from one of the best new whiskies of the year.” - Jim Murray

Initiated by Distillery manager, John Campbell as a tribute to the managers who preceded him, this Travel Retail Exclusive Laphroaig was left to rest in first-fill, over-charred ex-bourbon barrels before further maturing in large, new European oak hogsheads, never before used by the distillery. The latter provide a slower maturation than traditional casks. The signature peat smoke combined with soft oak results in a whisky of great depth. 48% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews… almost Laphroaig in concentrated form. The saltiness has receded but is there enough to raise the flavour profiles when need be… a sherry butt away from one of the best new whiskies of the year.” 92.5 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2018
