Enjoy a Bottle of Laphroaig 10-Year-Old Cask Strength Whisky

It’s that time of the year with school graduations and Father’s Day right around the corner. Looking for a great gift for that special guy in your life? Consider Laphroaig 10-Year-Old Cask Strength Whisky!

Laphroaig Single Malt peated Whisky comes from Islay, Scotland. It’s been described as the most richly flavoured scotch whisky found anywhere in the World. The Laphroaig distillery was first established by Donald and Alexander Johnston in the early 1800’s.

Bottled straight from the barrel, Laphroaig 10-Year-Old Cask Strength is a strong but great tasting peaty single malt Scotch. The benefit of the scotch being barrier-filtered is to remove any remnants of American oak barrel char.

Laphroaig 10-Year-Old Cask Strength is classic and unforgettable Scotch that’s ideal for special occassions or just to enjoy in a casual social setting. It’s also a terrific choice to begin or add to your own Scotch collection.

HRH Prince Charles paid a visit to Laphroaig back in 1994. It was a proud moment for the scotch brand as they were given his Royal Warrant.

What I like is that Laphroaig offers a way to stay connected with the company. With each bottle of Laphroaig scotch comes a unique code. Once the buyer registers, you officially become a “Friend of Laphroaig” and it allows a lifetime lease on a square foot of Islay, located adjacent to famous Laphroaig distillery. How cool is that?

So if you are looking for a wonderful tasting Scotch Whisky, the consider a bottle of Laphroaig 10-Year-Old Cask Strength. Enjoy this bold, peaty Scotch that’s bottled with the distinct flavor that Laphroaig is well known for.

Some of our clients traveling to Scotland have added a tour to the Laphroaig distillery in Islay. Contact us to help book your next vacation getaway. Follow our luxury blog to stay abreast of the latest news in the luxury industry.
