An iconic southern Islay distillery, Laphroaig is the benchmark for heavily-peated smoky single malt whisky. The distillery has been Islay’s most successful single malt for many decades now, so much so that in 1908, following a commercial dispute, White Horse’s Peter Mackie famously tried to create a copy of Laphroaig at Lagavulin, leading to the birth of Malt Mill.
Today, the most revered and sought-after Laphroaigs at auction fall broadly into two camps: the old official bottlings of Laphroaig 10-year-old from the late 1960s-1980s; and the extraordinary independent bottlings of 1960s and early 1970s vintages by Gordon & MacPhail, Signatory, Cadenhead’s and the Italian bottlers Samaroli and Intertrade. The common denominator in these legendary bottlings is a remarkably fruity character alongside the phenolic bombast - sadly this fruitiness is no longer found in Laphroaig’s modern distillate.
Uncharted Whisky Co. is a Scottish independent bottler founded by Jack Breslin and Dana de Vos in the village of Fintry, Scotland. The company has built a reputation for its modern, highly personal approach to Scotch whisky, focusing on single cask and small-batch releases that celebrate individuality and flavour. Every whisky is bottled at natural cask strength, without chill-filtration or artificial colouring, allowing the spirit’s true character to shine through. Known for their “Off the Grid” philosophy, Uncharted Whisky Co. seeks out distinctive and unconventional casks that stand apart from mainstream Scotch offerings. Their bottlings are typically high proof, with most releases exceeding 50% ABV, delivering bold and complex flavour profiles. Adding to their unique identity, each release is named after favourite rock songs, including Ace of Speys, Whole Lotta Rose, and Come Together. Transparency is also central to the brand, with detailed information provided on every bottle, including distillation dates, cask type, and bottle outturn.
