Laphroaig 1999 BR

With only 232 bottles available, each comes with a wax-dipped top in a BBR wooden gift box and is lovingly hand-numbered. In line with our intention to limit our negative environmental impact, the label is made of spent barley grains, bringing the production full circle from field to bottle.We started bottling casks under our label in the early 19th century, so to celebrate our 325th anniversary, we wanted to offer something truly exceptional. This exclusive bottling from Laphroaig is a testament to our long-standing commitment to curating the finest spirits.Lizzy Rudd, Chair, Berry Bros. & Rudd (November 2023)Every so often, when tasting through our repository of casks, one barrel begins to separate itself from the pack. When this happens, it feels beholden on us to find the ideal moment for such casks to shine at their brightest. Selflessly tasting an earmarked special cask repeatedly over several years helps us to pinpoint the optimum age for bottling - thus capturing the whisky at the height of its development. We had been tracking this barrel for a while, and, with unknowable serendipity, its particular apogee coincided with our 325th anniversary celebrations.Rob Whitehead, Spirits Buyer, Berry Bros. & Rudd (November 2023)
