Laphroaig Càirdeas Feis Ile 2019 - Triple Wood, 700ml, 59,5%

This Laphroaig Cairdeas Triple Wood was bottled in 2019 at 59.5% ABV. Matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry oak casks, it was released as part of the annual festival celebration.

The Triple Wood treatment brings additional complexity and depth to Laphroaig’s boldly peated Islay style, with maturation across multiple cask types layering smokiness and coastal character with richer oak influence and spice.

Colour: Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a mahogany undertone.

Nose: Piercing maritime peat and iodine rise from briny coastal air, melded with bourbon-vanilla sweetness and sherry-oak depth. Dried-fruit notes of prune and fig linger, joined by cocoa, spice, and a whisper of cinnamon and clove.

Palate: Powerful peat and coastal brine dominate the palate, tempered by bourbon vanilla and toasted oak. Sherry cask influence adds fig, dried fruit, and cocoa, weaving spice—ginger and clove—through the heat. Rich, oil-rich mouthfeel, with a long, smoky finish that lingers with brine, sweetness, and a warming peppery lift.

Finish: Long, maritime finish of peat smoke and salt air, shaped by sherry sweetness and bourbon oak spice. Peat lingers with hints of cocoa and dried fruit, while a peppery warmth eases into a refined coastal savor.
