The original Laphroaig, distilled following traditions laid down by Ian Hunter over 75
years ago. In making Laphroaig, malted barley is dried over a peat fire. The smoke from
this peat, found only on Islay, gives Laphroaig its particularly rich flavour. Those enjoying
the 10 Year Old will first notice the bold, smoky taste, followed by a hint of seaweed and
a surprising sweetness. This full-bodied variant is the foundation of all Laphroaig
expressions and comes with a long finish.
