✨ wine.spec_sheet
Laphroaig, established in 1815 on the south coast of Islay by brothers Donald and Alexander Johnston, is legendary for its uncompromisingly smoky, medicinal, and peat-forward character. This rare 28-Year-Old Limited Edition represents the pinnacle of patient maturation on the windswept shores of the Atlantic. Crafted using Islay's soft, peat-filtered water from the Kilbride Stream and barley dried over ancient Glenmachrie peat moss, the spirit is aged in a combination of hand-selected casks—ranging from quarter casks to ex-bourbon barrels and finished in Oloroso sherry butts. Over nearly three decades of slumber in Laphroaig's dunnage warehouses, the aggressive, medicinal peat smoke of its youth mellows into a sophisticated tapestry of rich peat, salted caramel, dried fruits, and warm spices, reflecting the rugged beauty and maritime heritage of Islay.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in 1815 by brothers Donald and Alexander Johnston, Laphroaig Distillery is situated on the rugged south coast of the Isle of Islay, Scotland. Celebrated globally for its distinctively bold, peaty, and medicinal character, the distillery remains one of the few that still utilizes traditional floor maltings to dry its barley over local, hand-cut Islay peat. This artisanal heritage, paired with distillation in unique copper pot stills and maturation primarily in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, defines its legendary portfolio, which includes the iconic 10 Year Old, Quarter Cask, and highly coveted aged limited editions.
