Laphroaig eight Year Old 2001/2009 Un-chillfiltered Signatory 46% vol. 0,7l

The independent bottler Signatory was founded in 1988 by the brothers Symington in Edinburgh.
At the beginning of their history, the brothers did not yet have the necessary influence in the whiskey industry, so the two often had to put up with barrels that spurned by the large, renowned independent bottlers such as Gordon & MacPhail or Ian MacLeod due to low editions or even lower quality were.

This is now the past and from the small, insignificant bottler has become a renowned, acclaimed producer, who often comes up with rare and coveted bottlings.
Since 2002, the smallest distillery in Scotland - Edradour - owned by Signatory.

Laphroaig
The Laphroaig distillery on Islay Island produces Prince Charles's favorite whiskey, proudly displayed on the bottling labels.
Laphroaig is a typical representative of Islay - for Laphroaig is the principle: "Either you love him or you hate him!".
The taste is overwhelming, whiskey connoisseurs use words like seaweed, diesel, tar or disinfectant to describe it.

Laphroaig is one of the few distilleries that still pokes its own peat today and whose "malting floors" are still in operation.
