- Description
- The first release of Laphroaig's 70cl cask-strength bottling, marked with the green 'Straight from the Wood' logo and bottled at a potent 57.3%. At this strength, the distillery's briny peat, medicinal character, and peppery warmth reach their full expression, before water or time opens additional layers of citrus and creeping sweetness. This is essential drinking for those who prefer their Islay uncompromised.
