Official tasting notes:
Nose: Peaty, sweet and nutty with “medicinal” notes. Strong vanilla cake, fudge, heather-honey, golden syrup, walnuts and nutmeg.
Palate: Powerful peat-reek and ashy notes of tar combine with sweet Manuka honey and burnt toffee. Oak spices, tannins, white pepper, plus dried herbs and flowers add an herbal touch.
Finish: Peaty and acidic with lingering herbal and spicy notes leading to a floral aftertaste.

Description
It’s a match made in Islay.
Laphroaig’s Càirdeas 2022 expression reflects how Friends bring out more in each other. This limited-edition single malt, aged in first-fill ex-Maker’s Mark bourbon barrels, dials up the quintessential Laphroaig taste. Classic flavours are elevated by a coastal character that can only come from sea spray and storms.
The Distillery comments:
“The 2022 Càirdeas honours Warehouse 1’s rare four-storey construction, with varying levels of temperature and humidity, and exposure to rugged conditions such as constant sea spray and storm drenching that lend a rich shoreline astringency to the classic Laphroaig flavours of peat, smoke, and salt. Bottled at a fixed strength of 52.2% for a memorable experience to share with your Friends”.
