Tasting Notes
Nose Rich aromas of smouldering peat, creamy vanilla, and sea spray, followed by hints of lemon oil, dried coconut, and aged oak furniture.
Palate Luxuriously smooth, with waves of warm spice, salted toffee, and gentle bonfire smoke, balanced by notes of barbecued citrus, medicinal herbs, and leather.
Finish Long, warming, and complex—lingering peat smoke, charred oak, and a touch of briny sweetness.
This Laphroaig 25 Year Old 2016 Release is an exceptional Islay single malt Scotch whisky, bottled as a limited edition in 2016. Matured for a quarter of a century in carefully selected American oak casks, this long-aged Laphroaig offers a more refined, elegant take on the distillery’s famously peated style. Bottled at natural cask strength, it delivers powerful flavour and depth with signature maritime character, rich oak influence, and a whisper of sweetness. A beautifully composed Islay malt for collectors and peat lovers alike.
