Aged for 17 years, this exceptional expression has been finished in a white Madeira cask, chosen personally by our Taste Trailblazing partner, Patagonian fire chef Francis Mallmann during his visit to our home here on Islay.

This Francis Mallmann Limited Edition embodies the unmistakable signature smokiness of Laphroaig with the evocative aromas and flavours of Mallmann's elemental cooking style and truly brings the essence of our Trailblazing partnership with Francis to life. The signature Laphroaig smokiness is enhanced with the richness of the white Madeira cask making for a very unique 17-year-old Laphroaig with hidden depths.

The packaging features hand drawn sketches by Francis from his time on Islay, inspired by the cold smoking process that makes our whisky like no other.
