This careful selection, overseen by Laphroaig’s Master Blender, creates a whisky that harmonizes the distillery’s signature peat smoke with layers of sweetness, spice, and oak.

Bottled at 80 proof, Laphroaig Select offers a refined introduction to Islay’s iconic smoky style. Expect rich aromas of peat, citrus, and vanilla, followed by a smooth palate of honey, toasted oak, and campfire smoke.
