TASTE 25 YEARS OF HISTORY

An evolution of the flavours in the classic Laphroaig 10 we all know and love, our 25 Year Old Cask Strength started its journey in 1998 – well before the age of social media and hyperconnectivity. Matured for a quarter of a century, non-chill filtered and bottled at cask strength to preserve its full flavour, our 2023 expression is a truly powerful one.

In its teenage years in the ex-bourbon casks, there is a prominent sweetness of red berries and vanilla. Then, like many strong-natured teenagers, this spirit emerges into its twenties slightly softened and more well-rounded. Now, the fruitier notes have time to come to the fore and blend with the ever-present smokiness.

Wave after wave of tropical flavour with a long, smoky finish and quintessential Laphroaig aftertaste – these historic and evolved flavours will surely appeal to whisky connoisseurs around the world wanting to savour a taste experience 25 years in the making.
