SHOWCASE
‘The Wall Collection’ is a series of highly-aged Laphroaig whiskies, each cask finished to explore a different flavour profile. The editions feature illustrations by Laura Carlin, hand-painted onto each bottle. The ‘Peat’ edition is the first release — a 36 year old Laphroaig with a heavily peated cask finish. There are only 200 bottles per edition.
Working with her Such Stories studio partner Jo, the same textured masonry paint of the famous Islay warehouse walls was used to create the base layer of each bottle, before Laura then hand-painted peat bricks in the traditional formation they are set on the banks in once dug from the ground.
Laphroaig: The Wall Collection was commissioned by Burgess Studio
