Laphroaig 10 Year Old Sherry Oak
This unique expression from Laphroaig combines the unforgettable flavour of our 10-year-old whisky with the sweet, aromatic flavours from the Oloroso sherry casks. This marriage of casks creates a rich, full-bodied flavour with notes of Manuka honey, bacon and maple syrup alongside the classic smoke, seaweed and hint of salt that Laphroaig is known & loved for. The European oak sherry casks are carefully selected to complement the unique and much-loved taste of Laphroaig. The additional sweetness and character of the Oloroso casks add complexity and balance to create a unique and exciting expression, but one that stays true to the character of Laphroaig.

Lagavulin 11 Year Old Offerman Edition
When one of the most famous peated Islay single malts partnered with acclaimed actor Nick Offerman, it was a match made in heaven. The actor is known for his role as Ron Swanson in the sitcom Parks and Recreation, where the character was enamored with Lagavulin single malt whisky. Lagavulin 11 Year Old Offerman Edition Double Charred Islay Single Malt Scotch is the 3rd limited release that stems from that partnership. Crafted as a perfect companion to a delicious steak, the whisky spent more than 11 years in heavily charred ex-bourbon and red wine casks before being bottled at 92 proof. It's an intensely peaty Scotch with notes of berries, brine, and vanilla.
