Laphroaig 30 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 2024 Release

Introducing the 2024 release of Laphroaig 30 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, a luxurious and aged expression from one of Scotland’s most iconic distilleries. Pronounced "La-Froyg", this rare single malt has been patiently matured for three decades on the rugged coast of Islay, delivering a remarkably refined, smooth, and complex character.

Crafted by Distillery Manager Barry MacAffer, this well-rounded Laphroaig reveals subtle smoke, warming citrus, and sweet undertones, diverging from the brand’s famously bold peat profile to offer a softer and elegant evolution. Bottled at 45.8% ABV (91.6 Proof), it's a collector’s piece as much as it is a whisky to savor slowly.
