Laphroaig Distillery Visit | Meet the Laphroaig Distillery

Laphroaig distillery was officially founded in 1815, although rumor say that the brothers Alexander and Donald Johnston actually built the site in 1810, when they started farming in the area. However, distillery dates in the nineteenth century, especially the early part of the century, should be taken with a pinch or two of salt.

Laphroaig is consistently the highest-selling Whisky on Islay, which is particularly impressive when you take into account the fact that the Whisky has such a distinctive and strong flavor.

We were allowed to visit the Laphroaig distillery and got exciting insights that we don't want to withhold from you.
