2011 Laphroaig Ex-Bourbon Barrel This Laphroaig whisky cask for sale was distilled in 2011 on the island of Islay. The spirit matured in an ex-bourbon barrel made from American oak.

After more than a decade in oak, the whisky now shows depth and maturity. Distillery Character Laphroaig is one of the best-known distilleries on Islay.
