Rich blue cheeses like Roquefort or Stilton, high-quality dark chocolate with sea salt, and smoked wild game or cured meats.
✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the rugged, wind-swept shores of Islay, Laphroaig is legendary for its uncompromisingly smoky, medicinal single malts. 'The Wall Collection: Peat By Laura Carlin 36YO' is an ultra-rare masterpiece that pays homage to the iconic whitewashed warehouse walls of the distillery, which have stood against the fierce Atlantic gales for over two centuries. This expression features bespoke ceramic artwork by illustrator Laura Carlin, celebrating the ancient peat bogs that give Laphroaig its soul. Having slumbered for thirty-six years in oak casks, the fierce, medicinal peat smoke of its youth has matured into an incredibly complex, elegant spirit. It weaves together notes of tropical fruit, beeswax, old leather, and a gentle, lingering maritime peat smoke, representing the absolute pinnacle of Islay craftsmanship.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Laphroaig blev grundlagt i 1815 af brødrene Donald og Alexander Johnston på den rå sydkyst af Isle of Islay og regnes i dag for et af Skotlands mest ikoniske og karakterfulde single malt-destillerier. Destilleriet er berømt for sin kompromisløse, medicinske og maritime profil og holder de stolte håndværkstraditioner i hævd ved selv at håndstikke lokal Islay-tørv fra Glenmachrie samt drive egne, historiske maltgulve. Kombinationen af koldrøgning og blødt, tørveholdigt vand fra Kilbride Reservoir giver en umiskendelig spiritus, der er rig på noter af tang, jod og markant tørverøg. Destilleriet hører i dag under Suntory Global Spirits og har siden 1994 kunnet pryde sig med et prestigefyldt Royal Warrant som kongelig hofleverandør. Her skabes skoledannende aftapninger, der spænder lige fra den klassiske 10 Year Old og den innovative Quarter Cask til dybt komplekse, eksklusive ældre single malts.
