Laphroaig 28 Year Old 1990 Legends Collection is a rare and highly collectible Islay single malt Scotch whisky, bottled by Hart Brothers for their prestigious Legends Collection series. Distilled in 1990 and matured for 28 years in a single first fill American bourbon barrel (#3689), this exceptional expression was bottled in May 2018, with just 218 individually numbered bottles released.

Produced at the iconic Laphroaig Distillery, this long-aged single cask showcases the distillery’s unmistakable peated and maritime character. First fill bourbon maturation enhances the whisky with layers of vanilla sweetness and oak spice, while allowing Laphroaig’s signature smoke, iodine, and coastal notes to evolve into a beautifully balanced and refined profile.
