Laphroaig Quarter Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750mL is a bold and unforgettable Islay single malt that captures the true essence of smoky Scotch. After initial maturation in ex-bourbon barrels, this whisky undergoes a second aging in smaller quarter casks — a traditional technique that increases contact with oak, enhancing both depth and smoothness.

The result is a richly peated, full-bodied single malt bursting with notes of smoke, vanilla, coconut, and subtle sweetness from the wood. Bottled at 96 proof, Laphroaig Quarter Cask delivers the signature maritime character and intense peat flavor fans of Laphroaig know and love, with an extra layer of creamy oak richness.
