Bottled 1985. Unblended Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky. 75cl. 40%. In presentation tin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA lovely old bottling of Laphroaig 15 Year Old from the 1980s, labelled “Unblended Islay Malt Scotch Whisky”, terminology characteristic of an earlier era of Scotch whisky labelling. Affectionately known among enthusiasts as the “Big Red 15”, thanks to the prominent red 15 across the label, this was Laphroaig's flagship aged expression during the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis style of Laphroaig 15 Year Old was commonly available until the late 1980s, meaning the whisky inside would have been distilled during the late 1960s and early 1970s – an era of production at Laphroaig that has developed an exceptional reputation among lovers of old Islay whisky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese early 15-year-olds are renowned for their wonderfully old-fashioned Laphroaig character, combining the distillery's unmistakable medicinal and maritime peat with a depth, fruitiness and complexity rarely encountered in modern bottlings. Despite being bottled at just 40%, they can be remarkably powerful and expressive, punching well above their strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA spectacular example of old-style Laphroaig and an increasingly difficult bottling to find today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Whisky-Online Auctions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58691685482877,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Laphroaig 15 Year Old - Unblended - 1985 Release-Lot Id:0626-108","offer_id":58691685548413,"sku":"0626-108","price":700.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/0036\/4446\/files\/0626-108-1_a07bd90a-4f8a-4ffb-9317-51bf84dbe03b.jpg?v=1789590665","url":"https:\/\/whisky-onlineauctions.com\/products\/laphroaig-15-year-old-unblended-1985-release-lot-id-0626-108","provider":"Whisky-Online Auctions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
