- Description
- Laphroaig's 1980 distillation spent 27 years in five ex-oloroso sherry casks before its 2007 release, marrying Islay's iconic peat and brine with the dried fruit and warming spice of aged sherry wood. The heavy peat influence remains present but tempered and enriched by nearly three decades of oak interaction, creating a layered expression where smoke and sweetness coexist. Limited to 972 bottles, this represents a mature Islay expression where peat and sherry contribute equally. An essential bottling for those seeking the convergence of Islay character and sherry sophistication.
