Following a three-month maturation period in Laphroaig whisky barrels, this inky smoke bomb unites the muscular, peaty flavours you would expect from an Islay whisky, with the smoky, thick body of a classic Imperial Baltic Porter. Carefully selected roasted malts also enhance this centuries old style’s characteristic smokiness. On the finish, the peaty, sweet vanilla flavours from the whisky barrels dance playfully around the mouth. Laphroaig is a whisky to be respected. This beer should be, too.
