- Description
- Hunter Laing's 2022 bottling captures a 31-year-old Laphroaig at 47.1% ABV, released as part of the Kinship series celebrating Islay's whisky heritage. The nose delivers classic Laphroaig intensity—hot tar, thick peat, clove, and orange oil—while the palate deepens with baked apples, rich peat, and savoury oak. Decades of maturation have integrated the spirit's medicinal character with complex wood influence. A sophisticated expression for experienced peat enthusiasts seeking aged Islay complexity.
