Laphroaig 30yo The Ian Hunter Story Book 2 Spanish Oloroso Sherry casks 48.2% 700ml information

The Laphroaig 30 Year Old Ian Hunter Story Book 2 is an exquisite single malt whisky, matured for three decades in Spanish oak oloroso sherry casks. This whisky represents the second chapter in The Ian Hunter Story, a series of fifteen rare aged single malts that pay homage to Ian Hunter, the last member of the distillery's founding family to own and manage Laphroaig.

Ian Hunter took over the distillery in 1908, playing a pivotal role in establishing Laphroaig as a distinguished single malt. This exceptional series honors his legacy and the unique spirit he helped create. The nose of this 30-year-old single malt reveals rich notes of dried dates, figs, toffee, dark chocolate, liquorice, and medicinal aromas. Upon adding water, hints of pipe tobacco and orange peel emerge. On the palate, one experiences a symphony of smoke, manuka honey, and smoked stone fruits, leading to a long and drying finish.

Bottled in 2020 at a strength of 48.2% abv, and free from chill-filtration, this release is limited to 4,800 bottles. It stands as a testament to Ian Hunter's enduring legacy and is a must-have for any collector or connoisseur. The whisky is elegantly presented in a beautifully crafted book that documents a part of Ian Hunter's rich legacy, making it a unique and treasured item for Laphroaig enthusiasts.

Laphroaig, an iconic southern Islay distillery, is renowned for its heavily-peated smoky single malt whisky. The distillery has been Islay's most successful single malt producer for many decades, with a unique flavor profile that has inspired countless other distilleries. This 30-year-old whisky celebrates Ian Hunter's significant contribution to Laphroaig's success, offering a rare opportunity to experience the exceptional quality of this legendary whisky.
