LAPHROAIG 10 ans 2015 Thompson Bros

Discover a singular expression with this single malt, distilled at the famous Laphroaig distillery. Proudly bottled for France and strictly limited to just 200 bottles, this whisky has patiently aged for 10 years in a refill cask. This vintage was carefully selected and crafted by Thompson Bros, an independent bottler founded in 2016 by brothers Phil and Simon Thompson in the Sutherland region. The team manages maturation, bottling, dilution, and filtration in-house, allowing them to focus on each edition individually to best preserve the distillate's unique character. Honoring their commitment to creating flavor-packed spirits, this Laphroaig is bottled with its natural color and without chill filtration. The story of Thompson Bros is, above all, one of brotherly passion and a palate sharpened by years of excellence. Long before crafting their own spirits, Phil and Simon Thompson had already forged a solid international reputation by elevating the Dornoch Castle Hotel bar to the status of a must-visit pilgrimage site for whisky lovers from all over the world. Building on this immense knowledge, culture of taste, and invaluable network, the two brothers felt the need to go further: they wanted to unearth and share the "hidden gems" they would have dreamed of serving at their own bar. Thus, their independent bottling business was born. Tirelessly crisscrossing Scotland and the globe, Phil and Simon put their formidable expertise to work, selecting rare casks of whisky and rum that align with a strict philosophy: recapturing the soul, authenticity, and "old school" flavor profiles of spirits from yesteryear. Today, their highly curated selections are met with resounding success. Highly sought after by the most demanding experts and connoisseurs, Thompson Bros bottlings—particularly their rare Single Cask editions—have become the true signature and beating heart of the project.
