Islay belongs to the Inner Hebrides in Scotland. The island lies between the Isle of Jura and Northern Ireland. From Ireland, the whisky once crossed over to Islay and thus entered Scotland. The most important place is Bowmore. Other places of interest are Port Ellen and Port Charlotte. The population is just over 3000. With its 8 distilleries, 6 of which produce a smoky whisky, Islay is formally a separate whisky region. It is therefore also known as the Whisky Island.
The standard Laphroaig 10 has long been one of the icons of the peated single malt whisky from the Scottish island of Islay. Until recently, the bottle always came in a tube, but since 2023 it comes in a box. The label also has a new design. (40%)
