Book 5 is the final release in this iconic, beloved series and is aptly named Enduring Spirit, celebrating the lasting legacy of the final member of the Johnston family to own and manage the Laphroaig distillery.

Ian Hunter had astounding vision for Laphroaig’s future, and he nurtured its growth alongside the rich heritage of Islay and its people. Thanks to this dedication and passion, the Scotch whisky you enjoy today boasts such a distinctive flavour that sets it apart from the crowd.

His vision and doggedness, while occasionally polarising in life, are characteristics that have been essential to imparting a lasting impact on the processes and practices still in place on our island home today.

There can be no finer way to culminate this series dedicated to Ian and his life than paying tribute to the enduring spirit he has left behind. The final instalment is a 34-year-old single malt with intriguing flavours of classic Laphroaig peat combined with accents of fruity blueberry and sweet, rich butterscotch. This combination of classic and modern flavours showcases the evolving vision and individuality that Ian Hunter had in mind for Laphroaig whisky, making it certainly a legacy of spirit that will endure.
