Description
Women's History Month Feature: Bessie Williamson is a legendary figure in the history of Islay’s whisky industry. She became managing director of the Laphroaig distillery on Islay and was the only woman to own and manage a distillery in Scotland in the 20th century.
Since 1815, each Laphroaig® Distillery Manager has been the custodian of the craft to make the richest single malt in the world. Over the years, each has passed on their skills and traditions to the next generation to continue this legacy. To honor this passing of knowledge, our Distillery Manager John Campbell has created Laphroaig®
Lore,™ the richest ever Laphroaig.® Lore, meaning passing of a skill or tradition through word of mouth, is the story of how we make Laphroaig® encapsulating the craft passed down from generation to generation over two centuries.
By maturing the liquid in small batches in five unique casks, we create a liquid that is rich, complex, varied and above all storied. We have created a Laphroaig whisky which uses different aged liquids ranging from 7 to 21 years, allowing us to create the richest possible Laphroaig flavour.
Bottle Size: 750ml
