Description

A special limited edition release for the 2008 Islay Festival and distillery friends. Cairdeas, pronounced 'car-chase' meaning friendship in Gaelic.

Created by blending various vintage guises of Quarter Cask spirit ranging from 9-4 years old, and then re-racked in 1st fill ex-bourbon casks for an additional four years. These casks were then blended with two 17 year old 2nd fill sherry butts. The result is a distinct, crisp, spicy, peaty and very smoky dram that ligers in the mouth. Excellent.

Distillery: Laphroaig

Founded in 1815. A stupendous complexity of sweet malt, Islay reek, Islay salt, all that is Islay, all that is the Scottish islands, that flows across the palate, that benefits from a chew and, finally rocks your own little foundations.

Tasting Notes

High intensity, dry with a hint of sea air. Lots of smoke and peat developing into liquorice and sweet lemon. Unmistakable Laphroaig.
