The Islay giant, Laphroaig, is back at it with another collaboration, this time with Argentine chef Francis Mallmann, who specialises in Patagonian cuisine and was even in charge of stoking the grill for actress Gwyneth Paltrow.

This 17 Year Old expression features a white Madeira-cask finish, which was hand-selected by the Patagonian chef, and features notes of "honey, peat and fruit".

"Hand-selected by Patagonian chef Francis Mallmann during his visit to Islay. His unique style is an easy alliance with the signature character of Laphroaig, connected through a shared passion for smoke-infused flavours. This special edition is finished in a white Madeira cask."

It is bottled at 54.9% ABV.
