Laphroaig Cairdeas White Port & Madeira 52.3% Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Cask
Description: | Laphroaig Cairdeas 2023 White Port & Madeira Casks Islay Single Malt Scotch brings together the best of much loved Cairdeas releases over recent years. The limited-edition single malt is a combination of Madeira and White Port casks. Three quarters of the whisky is matured in second-fill Madeira casks, releasing smoky, spicy, and sweet fruit flavors. The final quarter has been finished in first-fill Port casks; the majority of these are white port, adding a hint of crisp fruit and deep woodiness to the flavor. It's a new take on Laphroaig that plays to our strengths - welcoming friends old and new. Nose - Cinnamon, freshly ground ginger, crisp green apple with notes of toasted peaches, charred orange peel, and caramelized sugar with a whisper of bonfire embers. Palate - Honey sweetness paired with juicy citrus characters and delicate notes of hazelnut, tannic oak, dark chocolate and slightly bitter caramel leading to earthy iodine-rich smoke. Finish - Honey sweetness paired with juicy citrus characters and delicate notes of hazelnut, tannic oak, dark chocolate and slightly bitter caramel leading to earthy iodine-rich smoke. Maturation - Double matured with three quarters aged in Madeira casks and the final quarter aged in White Port casks. 104.6 Proof |
