Released to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Laphroaig you can now buy this limited release single malt online and savour its mildly smoky, soft dryness and hints of the sea attributes.

Laphroaig 15 year old was first created 30 years ago. Barrels were individually selected for their particularly mellow rounded flavour, then batch bottled at the higher export strength of 43% ABV. The resulting flavour soon became a firm favourite winning many awards. Its highlight was being chosen for the famous ‘Erskine Charity Bottling’ in 2000 when 270 bottles were drawn from a single 15 year old cask signed by HRH The Prince of Wales for this charity of which he is a patron.

This 200th Anniversary edition has been created in exactly the same way as the original. We very much hope it will be a delight both to those who have enjoyed it in the past and for many of you for whom it will be the first opportunity.

Official Tasting Notes

Nose: Initial scents of grapefruit and fresh mint. A touch of water releases salted caramel, with signature Islay peat smoke underlying sweet orchard fruit aromas.

Taste: Pink peppercorns, light peat smoke with a soft dryness, before a finish of tobacco and faint sea salt.

Finish: Mellow with a smoky aftertaste
