Laphroaig Distillery
n
Founded in 1815 on Islay’s rugged south coast, Laphroaig is famed for intensely peated single malts marked by maritime character—sea spray, iodine, and hearth smoke. Traditional practices like floor-malting a portion of their barley and maturing spirit in warehouses by the Atlantic continue to shape the distillery’s unmistakable profile.
