Burns Night

January 25th

As January's brisk air washes over Islay, we find ourselves on the cusp of a cherished Scottish tradition – Burns Night, a celebration of the immortal Robert Burns, the famed Scottish poet and lyricist.


At Laphroaig, we hold dear the traditions that unite us. We can think of no better way to honour the legacy of Burns than with a glass of our exceptional whisky; crafted with the same passion and artistry as Burns' timeless verses.


Whisky holds a central role in Burns Night celebrations, which are normally held on or near the poet's birthday on January 25th. Often raised in toasts throughout the evening as companion to the rich traditions of the festivities, a dram or two enhances a sense of friendship as people come together to celebrate.
