Wanted to pick up some scotch for a friend of mine. He loves peaty scotch, so i’d love something in that vein. Take a look at what’s offered at HDH and see if anything jumps out. Hoping to keep the budget <$200.
The distillers ed. is brought up in PX casks. Very mellow and peaty at the same time. There are different years available, but in the US they seem to be around the 1oo$ mark.
“A special bottling of Laphroaig 10 year old, released in 1994 to celebrate the bestowing of a Royal Warrant on the distillery by Prince Charles.”
Of historical interest more than special character.
Many of those bottles listed are special edition, thus the unusually high prices.
If you can still find them in the marketplace, 2015 200 Anniversary Laphroaig Feis Ile Cairdeas and 2015 200 Anniversary Laphroaig 15 are very special, old school Laphroaigs.
