Whisky Forum - Laphroaig Cairdeas Islay Festival 2008, Feis Ile

bazf

I have been given one of these and would like some advice.

The label on the tube that the whisky came in has a sticker instead of actually being printed on the tube like the other Laphroaigs i have. My question is: Is this normal for the 2008 festival bottling?

Thanks in advance.

Barry

That does sound a bit odd Barry. I am sure Laphroaig would be happy to help you if you contact them via their website. If you log in to the Friends of Laphroaig section they have a "contact us" page

Hi Barry,

Yes this is very normal and this is how our festival bottles are usually produced.
