Laphroaig Select

Released just prior to Feis Ile 2014.

This isn't your usual Laphroaig, its name is taken from the special selection of American and European casks.

6 flavour combinations were tested with Friends of Laphroaig (FOLs), this is the result of that winning selection. Laphroaig Select.

From Laphroaig Distillery. Islay.
