The textbook definition of fine Scotch.

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), rumor has it that his royal highness Prince Charles of Wales is a fan of the ‘L’ Whisky. The 15-year-old is reportedly the prince's favorite Scotch. For a long while, there’s been a frenzy for Laphroaig’s Scotch, especially those less-available expressions.

This offering definitely falls into the “less-available” category. A Laphroaig of this age is hard to come by. Laphroaig 28 Year Old Limited Edition was born from 27YO casks that spent an additional year in Sherry. It’s exactly what you’d imagine high-quality (and expensive) Scotch to taste like. This particular one is sweet, fruity, and warm with plenty of layers for you to discover when sipping neat or to incorporate in your premium cocktail.

Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
First-class Whiskies are taxed not only by the state but also by the angels. This refers to the 4% of Whisky that evaporates from the barrels every year, a phenomenon known as the angel’s share.
One who buys any Laphroaig official bottles has the chance to own a one square foot of land, on the Laphroaig estates.
Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
Maker's Mark is Laphroaig's main source for barrels.
