Description
Laphroaig Quarter Cask Tube 70cl, 48% is a bold Islay single malt from Laphroaig Distillery, created to intensify the famous Laphroaig character through double maturation in oak. This expression begins its life in ex-bourbon barrels before being transferred into smaller quarter casks, increasing the whisky’s contact with the wood and adding extra depth, sweetness and texture.
The result is a powerful but balanced Laphroaig with classic medicinal peat smoke, seaweed, tar, ash and coastal salt, supported by richer notes of vanilla, toffee, coconut, sweet oak and spice. The smaller cask influence gives the whisky a soft and velvety edge, while the 48% strength brings more body and intensity than standard 40% bottlings.
Laphroaig Quarter Cask is one of the distillery’s most recognised modern releases, loved by drinkers who want classic Islay peat with extra oak influence. Presented in its original tube, it is a strong choice for smoky whisky fans, gifting and collectors building a complete Laphroaig range.
