The Laphroaig Select is not dominated by powerful peat notes, but surprises with a mild sweetness of vanilla, ripe fruit and marzipan. Laphroaig is Gaelic and means the beautiful lowland by the broad bay. And that's where the distillery is, on a small, natural bay on the rough Atlantic. It was founded in 1815 by brothers Donald and Alex Johnston and soon became world famous. The distillery remained family-owned until 1954, when Bessie Williamson took over Laphroaig after the death of Ian Hunter, becoming the first female distillery owner. What is special about Laphroaig is the perfect interplay of the island's unique, natural influences, the hand-cut peat and the skill of the master blender. So all qualities show a very own, complex character, which is described in the distillery itself as very peaty and smoky and with an aftertaste of sea and hints of sweetness. Because of its exceptional quality and uniqueness, Laphroaig was chosen Purveyor to the Welsh Court in 1994. Since then, every label has adorned the majestic Welsh crest.

Thanks for great prices
Excellent
This is a new expression of Laphroaig for me. My favourite tipple is the meaty/peaty 10 year old, but the Select Cask puts this malt right up rhere. Still peaty but with less meat. A smoother drop, slightly oily to the taste, and quite delicious. This malt will be added to my go-to selection.
Lovely tasting - unique and enjoyable
Don't listen to noobs that say it's too smokey and reminds them of an ashtray, they have no idea and wouldnt no a good Islay drop of it fell on their head. This is truly a classic and is the closest scotch you'll get to Ardbeg and Lagavulin which are 1st and 2nd on the list.
Laphroaig is one of my favourite Scotches. I was introduced to Laphroaig when living overseas in a cold country. I haven’t tried it yet now I’m back in Australia.
Bought this having no idea about scotches but looked at reviews on another site. Was really disappointed. It remi d's me of an ashtray the smell that comes off it.. alot of people rave on about this but I'm not a fan
