Laphroaig Càirdeas Port & Wine Casks - Front Label

Laphroaig Càirdeas Port & Wine Casks has been revealed as 2020’s bottling of the annual Laphroaig Càirdeas release. Labels submitted to the TTB website indicate Laphroaig Càirdeas Port & Wine Casks will be a marriage of spirit fully matured in second fill Ruby Port barriques and ex-bourbon barrels, finished in red wine casks.

Laphroaig Càirdeas Port & Wine Casks is described as having aromas of “dark chocolate and menthol with pink peppercorns”, with notes of “toasted peaches, charred marshmallows, and a hint of plum jam” on the palate, “all intertwined with Laphroaig’s iodine rich peat smoke, resulting in a combination of honey sweet taste and Laphroaig’s signature medicinal smoke flavour.”

Laphroaig Càirdeas Port & Wine Casks will be bottled NCF (Non-Chill Filtered) at 52% ABV and is expected to hit stores sometime between spring and summer 2020.

    I’m sorry, but delivery costs of £15 to the UK is excessive.
    I would have purchased otherwise

    • Jason says:

      Went to purchase this until I seen the £15+ delivery cost to the U.K.
      That’s just ridiculous and I’m not prepared to pay it.

      Hi, I wondered why my delivery came from Berlin – and was charged with 5,90 EUR. Maybe you get it re-sent from Germany… that´s really sad….
