When Europe meets America.
Laphroaig distillery was founded in 1815 by Donald and Alexander Johnston and is located in Port Ellen, Isle of Islay. Although Laphroaig isn't allowed to put the prefix ‘Royal’ in its name (yet), rumour has it his royal prince Charles of Wales is a fan of the ‘L’ Whisky. The 15-year-old is reportedly the prince's favourite Scotch. For a long while there’s been frenzy for Laphroaig’s Scotch, especially those less-available expressions.
Laphroaig 25 Year Old is an interesting flavour fusion of Sherried, oaky flavours from the European Oloroso Sherry casks and the creamy, smooth, sweet flavours from the American Bourbon barrels. Two most different maturation flavours come together here, made smoother by the 25 years it has had for gentle maturation.
