- Description
- This limited-edition 15 Year Old, released to mark Laphroaig's bicentenary, presents a more refined take on the distillery's classic smoke-forward identity. Extended maturation has mellowed the phenolic intensity, allowing subtle layers of dried fruit and wood spice to emerge beneath the maritime peat. Best suited to those seeking classic Islay character with added complexity and age.
