Laphroaig 15 Years / best Islay Whisky 2007 from 13-20 years

Laphroaig 15 Years. 70 cl. and 43 % volume. Has the characteristics of the 10 year-old but is mellower in body and a tad bit more sophisticated. Five extra years has mellowed the peat and made it a more balanced and integral part of the overall flavour profile. A must-try Islay.

Rated from the Whisky Magazin 04/07 to the worlds best Islay Single Malt Whisky from 13-20 years.

Laphroaig 15 Year Old is the richer, more mature and succulent elder brother of the robust 10 Year Old. It collects awards every year like no other whisky

Our proudest ‘award’ is HRH the Prince of Wales’s emblem which sits proudly on every bottle of Laphroaig single malt. Prince Charles flew to Islay in 1995 to personally give us his ‘Fleur de Lys’. We understand that our 15 year old expression is his personal favourite.

Some have compared the moment of its discovery to the experience of climbing one of Scotland's rugged mountains. You have braved the wilds, followed your own independent way and at last reached the very top. The view is magnificent - well worth the effort. Your first sip of Laphroaig 15 Year Old will reward you with the same sense of exhilaration. There are very few "ultimate" highs in life. But this is one of them. Our 15 year expression is the reason we proudly display HRH Prince of Wales coat of arms on every bottle.

Mildly smoky, with sweet, warm undertones - and just a hint of the sea - Laphroaig 15 Year Old is fulfilling and utterly unforgettable. Made in tiny quantities, it is esteemed and savoured around the world by a fortunate few.
