Tasting Notes

Nose Intense and smoky, with notes of peat smoke, iodine, sea spray, vanilla, and sweet oak, alongside hints of citrus and spice.

Finish Long and warming, with lingering smoke, maritime notes, sweet spice, and oak richness.

Laphroaig Cairdeas Feis Ile 2017 Quarter Cask is a limited edition Islay single malt Scotch whisky from Laphroaig Distillery, released to celebrate the Feis Ile 2017. This special Cairdeas expression highlights Laphroaig’s iconic smoky style, intensified through maturation in quarter casks.

Quarter casks, being smaller in size, increase the interaction between spirit and wood, accelerating maturation and enhancing depth. The result is a bold and full-bodied whisky where Laphroaig’s signature medicinal peat, maritime character, and coastal salinity are amplified by rich oak influence, vanilla sweetness, and warming spice.
