Laphroaig Quarter Cask 70cl, 48%

Description

Laphroaig Quarter Cask 70cl, 48% is a powerful Islay single malt from Laphroaig Distillery, created to bring extra oak intensity and sweetness to the distillery’s famous smoky character. This expression is double matured, first in ex-bourbon barrels and then in smaller American oak quarter casks, increasing the whisky’s contact with the wood.

The result is a bold and full-flavoured Laphroaig with medicinal peat smoke, seaweed, tar, ash and coastal salt, balanced by vanilla, honey, toffee, coconut and sweet oak spice. The smaller quarter casks give the whisky a richer texture and a deeper oak influence, while the 48% strength adds weight, warmth and excellent flavour concentration.

This boxed edition is ideal for customers who want the classic Quarter Cask whisky with a clean, premium presentation. It remains one of the most recognised modern Laphroaig expressions and a strong choice for anyone who enjoys intense Islay smoke with extra sweetness and oak depth.
