- Description
- A rare 28-year-old Laphroaig from 1967, bottled in the mid-1990s by Direct Wines for their First Cask series and drawn from cask #2202. The extended maturation has rounded the distillery's youthful aggression into a more nuanced profile, where peat smoke mingles with aged oak spice and a subtle maritime salinity. This is a collector's piece that rewards patient appreciation, offering a window into how Islay whisky evolved during decades of patient aging.
