Ex-bourbon cask
A 25 year old Islay single malt from Laphroaig, distilled in 1998 and bottled by the distillery in 2023. It matured in an ex-bourbon cask and is part of the Cask Strength Edition, at 47.3% ABV in a 70cl bottle. The nose has a strong vanilla note breaking through the usual Laphroaig charcoal, with a touch of the coast, honey sweetness, apricot, fresh cloves, heather, grapes and tobacco. The palate is lightly peaty, with vanilla, blackcurrant, aniseed and apple, and a full, oily, velvety texture. The finish is long, a little spicy, and dusty and smoky to the end.

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.
