Laphroaig Single Cask Privately Selected 2014 PX Cask
Laphroaig Single Cask Privately Selected 2014 PX Cask
No distillery matches the complexity and depth of Laphroaig. Intense smoke, salt from the sea, echoes of sweetness. Each cask tells a story steeped in flavor and craft. This Laphroaig 2014 Pedro Ximenez Hogshead Single Cask combines peat and oakiness with a sweeter, heavier sherry flavor. Rich notes of dried fruit, sweet licorice, and spicy ginger round out the experience.
PX sherry casks are exceptional for aging and finishing whisky, rounding out rough edges. In this Laphroaig, they balance savory and sweet beautifully. Unlike the previous cask’s sweet-forward profile, this one starts with BBQ savory notes followed by sweet nuances. Together, these barrels showcase Laphroaig’s diverse offerings. Bottled at 60.7% abv (Bottle size 700ml)
