Laphroaig Select

Tasting notes

76out of 100

Laphroaig Select offers an accessible entry point into Islay peat by blending spirit aged in Oloroso sherry, Pedro Ximénez, Quarter Cask, and virgin American oak casks. Bottled at 40% ABV, it softens the distillery's signature medicinal peat smoke with sweet oak vanilla and subtle wine fruits, resulting in a lighter and more rounded dram.
