Laphroaig Cairdeas 2016 – Madeira Cask

This special 2016 release from Laphroaig’s celebrated Cairdeas series was created for the Feis Ile festival and offers a memorable twist on the classic Islay profile. The whisky undergoes double maturation, first in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, then finished in Madeira casks. Carefully aged between warehouses 8 and 10, this bottling delivers a unique and layered experience that both long-time fans and newcomers will appreciate.
