Description

Laphroaig is a whisky distillery on the Scottish Hebridean island of Islay and is owned by the Japanese-American Beam Suntory group. The buildings of the distillery are classified in the Scottish heritage lists. In the production of Laphroaig, barley malt is dried over a peat fire. The smoke from this peat, found only on Islay, gives Laphroaig its particularly rich flavor.

This edition of Laphroaig is dedicated to John Campbell the former distillery manager of Laphroaig.
The storage takes place in two different casks. First, the whiskey is stored in first fill ex-bourbon casks and then in hogsheads, which are made of European oak.
