Islay Whisky

Whisky specialists know what makes whisky from the island of Islay so special: a much stronger peat aroma characterizes the whisky from the eight remaining local whisky distilleries.
One of these eight is the Laphroaig distillery. Alongside the Bowmore distillery, these two are the only ones on the island that still produce some of the malt needed to make whisky themselves. This allows the distilleries to better influence the roasting with peat and create another, very unique character.

Ian Hunter

Ian Hunter was the last heir to the founding Johnston family, who once founded the Laphroaig brand. From 1908-1944, Hunter had the honor of successfully leading the family business. To honor him, the series 'The Ian Hunter' - Story Book Series was developed. It is a fifteen-part series of rare single malt bottlings, each of which represents a special chapter in Ian Hunter's life.
Story Book 3 is a whisky distilled in 1987. It represents Hunter's influence and is the only whisky he ever helped to develop. It matured in refilled ex-bourbon barrels for a good 33 years and is bottled at 49.9% ABV.

This combination of the Oloroso casks creates a rich, full-bodied taste with notes of Manuka honey, bacon and maple syrup alongside the classic smoke, seaweed and a hint of salt that is familiar to Laphroaig drinkers. The additional sweetness from the European oak casks and the character of the Oloroso casks provide complexity and balance to create a unique and exciting expression that remains true to the character of Laphroaig.

Laphroaig Single Malt Whisky 25 Years 2020 Edition Cask Strength 0.7L 49.8% The island of Islay Islay is one of the Inner Hebrides and is the southernmost of this group of islands. The history of whisky goes back a long way here, albeit illegally. Irish monks are said to have discovered the art of distillation here. Since the island was very isolated from the mainland at the time, the production of island-typical spirits naturally boomed, which the tax collectors absolutely did not like. Ultimately, however, the laws were changed to the advantage of the distillers and more and more legal distilleries were able to settle on the island. One of these legal distilleries has been the Laphroaig distillery on the south coast since 1815. The founders Donald and Alexander Johnston chose the name after the distillery's surroundings, which are a 'broad valley in the bay'. Good things come to those who wait This whisky is one of the best proofs that length of maturation is often what counts. For this single malt whisky, fresh Laphroaig was divided into two different barrels. One part matured in ex-bourbon barrels, the other part in Oloroso sherry barrels. The whisky was then allowed to mature and develop its full aromas for a quarter of a century. The storage facilities in the warehouses directly on the Atlantic play a particularly important role here. Laphroaig's notes always have something medicinal and a hint of seaweed. Added to this are the aromas of the different barrels. Slightly sweet, fruity notes from the sherry barrels, paired with vanilla and oak notes from the bourbon barrels. After this long maturation period, it was bottled directly at cask strength.
