Celebrating the twenty year marriage of His Majesty King Charles III and Her Majesty Queen Camilla, The Royal Anniversary Edition by Duncan Taylor Scotch Whisky Limited features a unique pairing of Laphroaig Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (among His Royal Majesty's favourite drams) and a London Dry Gin aged in the Laphroaig cask. Displayed atop the removable plinth,
they symbolise the union of 'Two Eternal Spirits'.
