Laphroaig 25y Bessie Williamson Story 2019 43% 0.7L gift pack

Aged for a quarter century, this expression of our unmistakable single malt combines characteristic peat smoke with flavors of acacia honey, black pepper and sweet herbs. Exclusive to global travel retail outlets, and packaged inside a hardback book, it's a must-have for any collector.|This Islay whisky celebrates the life and times of Bessie Williamson. The first woman to own and run a Scotch whisky distillery in the 20th Century, she more than held her own in a male dominated industry. Warm, rich and with unmistakable Islay character, this expression embodies everything we know and love about Laphroaig and its first female distillery manager.|The focus of this expression is on the natural character of this exceptional Islay single malt. It's aged in refill barrels and American oak hogsheads, which impart less of their own flavor. They simply allow the whisky to gently mellow over time. This allows the natural features of Islay — such as the peat that the malted barley is toasted over and the crisp waters of the Kilbride stream — show their effects. As a result, this rounded single malt speaks of the true nature of Laphroaig. |Bessie is just one of the incredible people who have contributed to making Laphroaig what it is today — a richly flavored Scotch whisky. Since 1815, our master distillers and blenders have been innovating new ways to mature our single malts.

Laphroaig 1815 Edition Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 48% 0.7L gift pack

This exceptional edition created by our current Distillery manager, John Campbell, is left to rest in first-fill, over-charred ex-bourbon barrels before further maturing in large, new European oak hogshead, never before used by Laphroaig. These give a slower maturation than traditional casks. Our signature peat smoke combined with soft oak and rice dried fruit. A whisky of great depth.

Laphroaig Px Cask Travel Exclusive 1L

Description PX Cask is the first to enjoy maturation in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks, widely referred to as “PX” casks. Pedro Ximenez sherry is known to be naturally sweet made from dried Pedro Ximenez grapes. The three types of barrels used in the maturation each impart a subtly different character, from American oak to Quarter Cask to Pedro Ximenez sherry. The last maturation in the ex-PX Cask provides the rich, sweeter and full bodied notes which perfectly complement the peat-smoke tang of Laphroaig, creating an expression which needs to be appreciated over time to fully explore. This whisky is only available in Travel Retail.

Laphroaig Four Oak Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 40% 1L gift pack

Rich and full-bodied, Laphroaig Four Oak combines single malt Scotch aged in a variety of oak casks. Each one imparts its own unique character to the richly flavoured blend. Notes of stewed fruit are complemented by warm, toasted vanilla underpinned by the signature Laphroaig taste of smoke and seaweed. Hand-selected spirits from a number of barrels come together in this unique Laphroaig expression, Four Oak. First are the ex-bourbon barrels, which we gently toast before filling to impart charred flavours to our distinctive single malt whisky. Next are the large European oak hogsheads, where the whisky gently matures, and then onto our traditional 19th century style quarter casks. These smaller casks allow the spirit more contact with the wood, which softens it to develop a velvety texture. As an innovative touch, our Four Oak single malt also includes whisky aged in virgin American oak. This isn't typical in Scotch whisky making and lends powerful notes of vanilla to the blend. By combining four maturation styles, this Islay single malt showcases techniques developed over more than two centuries by generations of whisky makers.
