Laphroaig 10 Years Old Sherry Oak Cask Finish 48% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

The Laphroaig 10 Years Old Sherry Oak Cask Finish combines the unmistakable smokiness of the iconic Islay distillery Laphroaig with the elegant sweetness of the finest Oloroso sherry casks. This special bottling is based on the classic 10-year-old Laphroaig, but is given an additional finish in European oak casks that were previously filled with Oloroso sherry. The result is an expressive single malt Scotch whisky that combines depth, complexity and contrasting aromas.

With a strong alcohol content of 48% vol. and bottled non-chill-filtered, this Islay whisky is particularly intense, full-bodied and multi-layered. The interplay of medicinal peat smoke, iodized coastal freshness and sweet sherry influences makes it an unmistakable pleasure for lovers of peaty whiskies with depth of maturation.
