A 25-year-old Laphroaig® and a tribute to the life of Bessie Williamson, an icon of Laphroaig®, the first female distillery manager to own and run a Scotch whisky distillery in the 20th century.
The Bessie Williamson Story has been aged for 25 years in refill American oak hogsheads and refill barrels, and bottled at 43% ABV.The larger size of a hogshead allows the liquid’s character to remain prevalent over 25 years of maturation while letting the signature smoky flavour of Laphroaig® shine through.The overall effect is one of lingering warmth and unmistakable Islay character, representing the enduring legacy of Bessie.
Tasting Note – Sweet herbs and spices with black pepper.
