Laphroaig 1988-2018 | 30 Year Old The Syndicate's Single Cask 9201

Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: The Syndicate's 70cl / 48.1%

A single cask Laphroaig 1988 30-year-old Islay single malt whisky bottled in 2018 at cask strength for indie bottlers The Syndicate at Bruichladdich distillery.

This glorious 30-year-old Laphroaig 1988 came from single cask 9201 and was an edition of just 139 bottles at its nigh-perfect drinking strength of 48.1%. Over three decades of maturation the raw intensity of Laphroaig's smoke has been tamed, with the peat's phenols now transformed into a gentler sootiness, allowing much greater nuances of flavour, allowing room for notes of tinned fruit syrup, salty seaweed, hessian, chargrilled citrus, kippers, beach bonfires and wet sand.
