Laphroaig's
Annual Cairdeas Expression for 2018:
Cairdeas Fino Cask
By FBWorld Team
We're
excited to unveil Laphroaig's annual Cairdeas expression for
2018 - Laphroaig Cairdeas Fino Cask. Crafted in limited quantities
and in the spirit of friendship Cairdeas Fino Cask is perfect
to share with friends old and new. Each year, Laphroaig distillery
manager, John Campbell, crafts a new version of Cairdeas to
celebrate friendship ("Cairdeas" means friendship
in Gaelic), and to honor the nearly 700k loyal members of the
Friends of Laphroaig community. Laid to rest in the distillery's
Warehouse 8 and 10 and hitting shelves this month, Cairdeas
Fino Cask (SRP: $79.99) features a special double maturation
of the liquid in first fill bourbon barrels, and then finished
in Fino Sherry casks.
The
result: a full-bodied, peaty whisky that's unmistakably Laphroaig.
