ONE OF A KIND TASTE
Laphroaig 10 gets its distinctive taste from the natural features of Islay, the remote and rugged island off the West Coast of Scotland where the whisky is made. Local water is sourced from the legendary Kilbride Stream, and the malted barley is cold-smoked then dried over a fire fuelled by the Islay peat. This lends a distinctive flavour that speaks of the land where it was forged.
It also has a distilling process which has been developed and refined over the course of 200 years by a succession of passionate master distillers. One of whom was Ian Hunter, who laid down the process for Laphroaig 10 more than 75 years ago: and these methods are still followed today.
Founded on Islay in 1815, the Laphroaig distillery has been creating distinctive Scotch whisky for over two centuries. Laphroaig 10 is the quintessential expression of Laphroaig and its character can be found in nearly every whisky that the distillery produces.
Laphroaig 10 has won multiple awards, including a Gold medal at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. It was also named in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible as 2019's Best Single Malt Scotch 10 Years & Under.
