This is a 20-year-old Laphroaig from Islay, bottled by independent bottler Highland Laird at 58.9% in a 70cl bottle. It was distilled in October 2005 and began its maturation in an ex-bourbon barrel. It was then finished in an ex-sherry butt, which added dried fruit, polished oak and rich spice over the smoke and iodine character of the distillery. The nose combines peaty smoke and iodine with dried fruit and a medicinal freshness. The palate is rich and oily, with dates, treacle, charred wood and black pepper. The finish is long, with bonfire ash, brine and cocoa powder.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
