This distillery is part of the Diageo and provides malts within there Classic Malt Series ever since 1987. Two distilleries are very closing link together, and they are Laphroaig's and Lagavulin, and this one is the older of the two with Laphroaig being founded a few years later by the son of the founder of Lagavulin.
They were linked together in ways that were not all good with court cases and regarding the supply of whisky for the White Horse blend. Making the story, shorter Lagavulin blocked the water supply for the Laphroaig's distillery, and Laphroaig won this case only for the Lagavulin to try and make whisky have the same taste of Laphroaig.
