Laphroaig 10 year old is an Islay single malt Scotch whisky known for its distinctive peaty and smoky character. It is one of the flagship expressions from the Laphroaig distillery, renowned for its robust flavor profile and maritime influence.
Laphroaig Distillery is located near Port Ellen, in the isle of Islay. It is believed that the word Laphroaig comes from Scots Gaelic “Lag Bhrodhaig” which means “the hollow of Broadbay”
The distillery was founded in 1815, by two brothers, Donald and Alexander Johnston. Donald would become the sole owner as he bought his brother’s share but in 1847 he died in an accident so his uncle John Johnston takes control, until Dougald Johnston (Donald’s son) becomes 21 years old and starts running the distillery along with his cousin Alexander Johnston.
In 1887 after Alexander passed away,his sisters Mrs William Hunter and Katherine Johnston along with his nephew J.Johnston-Hunter would take control.
By 1921 another member of the family, Ian Hunter, William’s son, came in charge and faced the challenge of running a distillery with a growing reputation for its unique flavor. By 1929 the brand would be known worldwide.
In the 1930s, a woman named Bessie Williamson got a summer job at the distillery. That job lasted 40 summers, and she became the manager, after Ian, in 1954.
The distillery changed several hands since the 1960s with D.Johnston & Company being the current owners and Beam Suntory being the parent company since 2014.
The distillery’s seven stills can lead to a capacity of approximately 3.6 million liters per year.
You must be 18 years old to enter.
