Released in celebration of Laphroaig’s 200th anniversary, the Laphroaig 32 Year Old Cask Strength is a remarkable limited edition, with only 5,880 bottles produced worldwide. Matured exclusively in first-fill Oloroso sherry casks filled between 1980 and 1983, this rare expression showcases an unusually rich and sherried side of Laphroaig. Although labelled as 32 years old, approximately 80% of the whisky is aged between 34 and 35 years, making it a true rarity. Bottled at cask strength, 46.6% ABV, it balances the distillery’s signature peat smoke with deep sherry richness.
