We are proud to offer our latest single cask Whisky Galore exclusive, selected from the Laphroaig distillery and produced in collaboration with independent bottlers Elixir Distillers. Matured for 11 years in an ex-Hogshead cask, we were captivated by this Laphroaig from when our sample first arrived to the bottles finally reaching our shores in time for Christmas.
This dram begins with a salty, savoury start: smoky bacon crisps, beef oxo cubes and bubbling hot cheesymite mousetraps. Laphroaig's signature dirty and medicinal character comes through with notes of old fashioned cough drops, diesel soaked tar and carbolic soap. The peat smoulders throughout, with a tone of burning of white sage and dukkah. Luscious and oily even at its high natural strength, the finish was described by Michael as tasting like "smoky mint chocolate".
We hope you enjoy this special dram, it is named in honour of Bessie Williamson - you can read her story below.
