SCN Williamson 9 Year KWM Cask

Our first KWM single cask of Laphroaig single malt, bottled as Williamson, is a 2015 vintage 9 year old finished for 3 years in a 2nd Fill PX Sherry Hogshead before bottling at 57.4%. We did bottle an A.D. Rattray Williamson cask roughly 8-10 years ago, but it was a tea-spooned Blended Malt. This is a sweet, dirty, sherried, and rather drinkable Laphroaig!

Laphroaig 10 Year
$88.99
Laphroaig's peat is principally what makes it different. Harvested in a low-lying part of the island it has layers of salt and seaweed not found in other peat deposits. This gives Laphroaig a medicinal, briny, smoky character distinctly different from all other Islay whiskies as well as any other made elsewhere in the world. Laphroaig is among on 6 distilleries which malt some of their own barley.

Regarding the Non-Age-Statededness of the bottle, Laphroaig says this about the maturation: "A blend of whiskies aged from seven to 21 years in ex-Bourbon, European Oak and Oloroso sherry barrels along with quarter casks."
Laphroaig 10 Year Sherry Oak
$109.99
This popular bottling of Laphroaig is finished in oloroso sherry casks before bottling at 10 years of age and 48%.
Producer Description
"Unforgettable flavours from our classic 10 Year Old whisky find harmony with the sweetness and complexity of Oloroso sherry to create Laphroaig® 10 Sherry Oak. Finished in European sherry oak casks for a particularly memorable single malt. This unique expression begins with the same time-honoured process that goes into our regular 10 Year Old Laphroaig®. After drawing rich character from ex-Bourbon barrels, the spirit then rests in casks previously filled with sweet Oloroso sherry. Each barrel is hand selected to add extra complexity to our quintessential single malt. It’s what layers notes of Manuka honey and grilled bacon onto our renowned flavours of peat smoke and seaweed. "
