Laphroaig aged in wine casks? (Petras wine??)
Hi,
I have checked with a noted LAPHROAIG COLLECTOR in The Netherlands and he is not aware of an OB ( distillery bottling ) of LAPHROAIG matured and / or finished in Petra wine casks. He did lead me to an Italian independent bottler of scotch whiskies who finishes his bottlings in Venetian wine casks such as Raboso, Fragolino, and Clinto. The Italian bottler did state that it must be another Italian independent who possibly bottles from ex-Petra casks.
Would you mind asking your local watering hole to give you the information off the label or email me or post the name of the bar on "The Forum" and I will be glad to phone and ask. This JUST sounds like such an interesting dram.
