Huge smoke, seaweed (medicinal), with a hint of sweetness on the finish - Laphroaig 10 Year Old is a legendary Scotch. Try adding some water into this one, it reveals so many underlying notes hidden behind the peat.
Laphroaig gains its distinct hint of iodine flavour from its peat which is unique as it’s made from heather, mosses and lichens of Islay. Other distilleries tend to source their peat from other parts of Scotland.
The Laphroaig distillery was founded by farmers, Donald and Alexander Johnston, in 1815. They acquired land for cattle but quickly realised they could earn more making and selling whisky with the grains they grew, instead of feeding the cattle.
Pronounced “La-froyg”, the distillery is named after its location which is located at the head of Loch Laphroaig on the south coast of Islay in Scotland.
