“Winter Landscape with Skaters” by Hendrick Avercamp, circa 1608
"From a high vantage point, this painting reveals a vivid tableau of human – and animal – activities during a harsh winter. Hundreds of figures are scattered across the ice: some reveling in merriment, others toiling out of sheer necessity. Avercamp does not shy away from the macabre – in the foreground, crows and a small dog feast upon the frozen carcass of a horse."
A perfect artwork for the perfect season.
What better companion to the chilly months than a stunning Islay single malt? This Laphroaig, aged for 12 years and bottled at a robust cask strength of 57.3%, captures the essence of winter. Selected with the festive season in mind, this pairing of art and whisky creates a harmonious blend of beauty and taste. A gift to give, receive, or savor yourself as you bask by the fireside with a dram of Islay’s finest.
Tasting Notes:
Color: Radiant Gold
Palate: Smoldering peat smoke, crispy bacon, and rich peated barley – a robust and unforgettable Islay experience.
