Laphroaig To Celebrate 200th Anniversary With Live Web Event

By Richard Thomas

The 9th annual Laphroaig Live event will take a special twist to mark the Islay whisky distillery’s 200th anniversary with a live web broadcast. Laphroaig distillery manager John Campbell will be joined by five of his predecessors for a video tour, going behind the scenes at the distillery. If that kind of expert guide service for Laphroaig were not enough, this is the first time all six of Laphroaig’s current and former distillery chiefs have been brought together, making the event a must-see for diehard Laphroaig fans.

This year’s Laphroaig Live also showcases four new single malt whiskies: tthe one off’ Laphroaig 15 Year Old; the official 200th anniversary expression, Laphroaig Cairdeas 2015; Laphroaig 21 Year Old; and the Laphroaig 32 Year Old 100% sherry matured.

Also attending the event in Islay will be a handful of whisky experts and Scottish actor Sam Heughan, best known for his role in the series Outlander.

Worldwide fans of Laphroaig will be able to pose questions to the panel of experts and Laphroaig distillery hands, joined by those attending the live link at Whisky Fest, being held in New York later this week.
