Laphroaig 10 Year Sherry Oak Finish 750ml is a bold Islay single malt that combines the iconic medicinal peat smoke of Laphroaig with the rich sweetness of sherry seasoned oak. Aged for 10 years and finished in Oloroso sherry casks, this expression balances powerful coastal character with layers of dried fruit and spice.
