Càirdeas 2024 Cask Favourites
This year’s highly anticipated limited-edition Càirdeas is here.
The 2024 Càirdeas limited edition release is a 10-year-old Laphroaig with a bold combination of flavours from the casks of two popular previous releases: 2019’s Triple Wood and 2021’s PX Cask. Bottled at a fixed strength of 52.4% ABV for a memorable character to share with Friends.
Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark, rich copper in colour
Nose
Brazil nut toffee brittle, with sweet vanilla custard notes and baking spice, followed by milk chocolate covered raisins and a suggestion of spiced orange.
Palate
Rich, sweet and oily on the palate, with notes of smoked orange toffee, stewed peaches and smouldering campfire. Dried fruit notes balanced with hints of coffee grounds and liquorice root for a long lasting and slightly herbal finish.
Finish
Long, slightly sweet and dry with a long, slightly peppery peat-rich smoky finish.
THE BEST OF FRIENDS
The release of our Càirdeas expressions is our favourite time of the year, not least of all because it goes hand in hand with Fèis Ìle, the renowned festival on Islay. 2024’s Càirdeas Cask Favourites brings together two iconic past releases in a bold and distinct flavour and is, as always, in honour of our Friends.
This 10-year-old Càirdeas edition celebrates 30 years of Friends of Laphroaig with casks from two well-loved Càirdeas releases: 2019’s Triple Wood and 2021’s PX Cask. This is a Laphroaig that matches our iconic smokiness and minerality with fruitier, sweeter qualities from the choice of cask
It’s 30 years since we started the Friends of Laphroaig, so this edition of our Friends’ cask favourites is our way to say slàinte!
