Bottled at 49.5% ABV in a generous 70cl format, it offers a memorable tasting experience for whisky lovers who appreciate bold flavour and careful maturation.

Inspired by Islay’s south coast, this whisky captures the distinctive medicinal style associated with Laphroaig. Its smoky profile is powerful but balanced, making every pour feel considered and rewarding. The result is a bottle that brings impressive age, rich flavour, and collectable appeal together in one thoughtful package.

A Powerful Blend of Smoke, Sweetness, and Dark Fruit

The Second Witch delivers the unmistakable character of a smoky Islay malt, with charcoal smoke leading the way. Beneath that familiar coastal intensity are layers of rich vanilla and dark dried fruit. These flavours create a smooth contrast, giving the whisky more depth than smoke alone can offer.

• Charcoal smoke: A bold, warming note that reflects its Islay roots.
• Rich vanilla: A soft, rounded sweetness that helps balance the smoky character.
• Dark dried fruit: Brooding fruit notes add weight, warmth, and a lingering finish.
• Medicinal Islay character: A distinctive style prized by fans of traditional peated whisky.

26 Years of Maturation in Bourbon and Sherry Casks

With 26 years of maturation, this whisky offers a sense of age and complexity that makes it stand apart from younger releases. The whisky reflects the influence of both bourbon and sherry casks, combining different types of richness in a single dram.

Bourbon cask influence helps bring forward creamy vanilla and a gentle sweetness, while sherry cask maturation contributes darker fruit tones and a fuller, more rounded feel. Together, they create a layered whisky that reveals something new with each sip. The smoky foundation remains at the heart of the experience, while the cask combination adds balance and character.

Exceptional Value for Enthusiasts and Collectors

A well-aged whisky can be a rewarding choice for anyone looking to enjoy more from every bottle. The Second Witch offers the appeal of a 26-year-old Islay malt, a strong 49.5% ABV, and a distinctive place within The Macbeth Collection. Rather than choosing an ordinary bottle, this release gives whisky fans the opportunity to explore age, flavour, and series appeal in one purchase.

Its 70cl size makes it suitable for sharing on special occasions, enjoying slowly at home, or presenting as a thoughtful gift. The combination of a famous smoky style, long maturation, and eye-catching series identity makes it a valuable addition to a personal whisky shelf. It is a bottle with both immediate drinking appeal and lasting interest for collectors.

How to Enjoy This Islay Whisky

Pour it neat to experience the full meeting of smoke, vanilla, and dark fruit. Adding a few drops of water can gently open the whisky and reveal further layers, while serving it over ice offers a cooler, softer approach. However it is enjoyed, taking time with the dram allows its rich character to develop in the glass.

The Second Witch is a strong choice for smoky whisky enthusiasts, fans of Laphroaig’s distinctive style, and collectors seeking a mature release with a clear connection to The Macbeth Collection.
