Laphroaig 10 Year Old Sherry Cask edition is layered with sweetness and complexity from the Oloroso Sherry Casks used to finish this bottling. This unique expression begins with the same time-honoured process that goes into the regular 10 Year Old Laphroaig. After drawing rich character from ex-Bourbon barrels, the spirit then rests in casks previously filled with sweet Oloroso sherry. Each barrel is hand selected to add extra complexity to the quintessential single malt. It’s what layers notes of Manuka honey and grilled bacon onto their renowned flavours of peat smoke and seaweed.
