Laphroaig 28 Year Old Bot.2018 70cl, 44.4%

Description

Laphroaig 28 Year Old Bot.2018 70cl, 44.4% is a limited edition Islay single malt Scotch whisky from Laphroaig Distillery, released in 2018 as one of the distillery’s oldest modern official bottlings. Matured for 28 years, this expression shows a beautifully refined side of Laphroaig, where the classic medicinal peat smoke is softened by age and balanced by fruit, sweetness and elegant oak depth.

This release was drawn from a selection of quarter casks, ex-Bourbon barrels and Oloroso sherry butts, before being married in sherry casks. That combination gives the whisky a layered profile of orchard fruit, grilled dates, baked pears, salted caramel, citrus peel, soft spice and subtle bonfire smoke.

The result is rich, sweet and complex, with the unmistakable coastal Islay character still present, but delivered in a smoother and more mature style. Complete with its original white wooden-style presentation box shown in the supplied product image, this is a serious bottle for Laphroaig collectors and lovers of older peated whisky.
