Laphroaig 15 Year Old – 200th Anniversary Edition was released in 2015 to celebrate the distillery’s bicentennial. Bottled at 43% ABV, this limited-edition expression offers a more refined and mellow take on Laphroaig’s signature peat smoke. Aged exclusively in ex-bourbon casks, it delivers a balanced profile of smoky iodine, maritime salt, citrus, soft oak, and sweet vanilla. Compared to the classic 10-year-old, it is smoother and more complex, with a long, warming finish of spice and lingering peat. A fitting tribute to 200 years of Islay whisky craftsmanship, it remains a cherished bottle among Laphroaig fans.
