Càirdeas 2020 Port & Wine Casks
The one for our Friends. Our Càirdeas 2020 limited edition has been on a multi-cask adventure in aging – and you can certainly taste it. Exclusively available to Friends of Laphroaig.
WHAT FRIENDSHIP’S MADE OF
Càirdeas is Gaelic for ‘friendship’. And friendship is exactly why former distillery manager John Campbell started the annual Càirdeas limited releases back in 2008 – exclusively for Friends of Laphroaig®. The 2020 Port & Wine edition carries on this tradition with a multi-cask aging process. While some of our single malt is matured in our classic ex-Bourbon casks, another batch is aged in second-fill Ruby Port barriques. Finally, the two are combined in red wine casks to complete their journey as a wine finished whisky. This rounds out our famously rugged flavours of peat smoke and iodine with hints of dark chocolate, honey and pink peppercorn. Sip our 52% vol Laphroaig® Càirdeas Port & Wine neat or add in a few drops of water to discover even more layered flavours. Either way, we say it’s best shared with Friends.
