✨ Technical Specifications
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.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1815 by brothers Donald and Alexander Johnston on the rugged southern coast of the Isle of Islay, Laphroaig is celebrated as one of Scotland's most iconic and distinctive single malt distilleries. Renowned for its unapologetically bold, medicinal, and maritime character, the distillery preserves heritage traditions by hand-cutting local Islay peat from Glenmachrie and operating its own historic floor maltings. Utilizing cold-smoking techniques and soft, peaty water drawn from the Kilbride Reservoir, Laphroaig yields an unmistakable spirit brimming with notes of seaweed, iodine, and robust peat smoke. Now under the stewardship of Suntory Global Spirits and holding a prestigious Royal Warrant since 1994, the distillery produces benchmark expressions ranging from its classic 10 Year Old and innovative Quarter Cask to deeply nuanced, ultra-aged single malts.
