Laphroaig The Archive Collection 2024 Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky 36 Year Old
In stock
A decade-by-decade journey of flavour brought to life, The Archive Collection 36 Year Old is first in a new series of highly limited aged whiskies. This release is housed in custom-made, hand-blown glass bottles inspired by the sea glass found on the beaches of Islay.
With only 400 bottles available worldwide, Distillery Manager Barry MacAffer could hardly contain his excitement at getting to taste The Archive Collection for the first time. This first release is a striking and refined tasting experience, with its sherry seasoning making for a hearty, rich depth of flavour.
The Archive Collection 36 Year Old is the first release and uniquely showcases Laphroaig's single malt’s extraordinary depth and character. A truly rare, cask strength whisky promising a broad spectrum of flavours and aromas, this single malt brings a new dimension to the unmistakable flavour of Laphroaig and is certainly one to treasure.
Maturation: Matured in American oak casks and finished in a sherry-seasoned Oloroso hogshead, giving rich flavour and depth.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with mahogany depths and a warm copper glow, touched by a subtle ruby sheen that catches the light in the glass.
Nose
Honeyed sweetness with hints of white peach and mango, followed by creamy dark toffee, vanilla and cedar wood, then subtle oil of wintergreen and notes of singed sage and liquorice root.
Palate
Zesty and sweet with orange peel and tropical fruit, the palate coats the mouth with lush richness at first, then dries to a refined peatiness, with coastal saline notes lingering gracefully.
Finish
Warm and lingering, the finish fans the peat across the palate, leaving a salt-kissed echo on the lips that persists with quiet, smoky grace.
