Whisky Advocate
Bottling at cask strength, with only ‘barrier filtering’ to remove particles of char, rather than the standard chill-filtration process, gives the whisky greater integrity, with heightened aromas and flavors, and a satisfyingly sinewy mouthfeel not found in the standard 10 year old. Classic ‘burning hospital’ notes feature on the nose, along with peaty malt, vanilla, lemon, and brine. Charcuterie and cocoa powder add to the effect on the palate, before phenolic, medicinal, and sweet malt notes bring things to a close. A must-have Laphroaig that represents a big step up in intensity.

Wine Enthusiast
Islay's Laphroaig is famed for its intensely peaty profile, and this single-malt Scotch delivers on that reputation. The amber spirit opens with a smoky aroma that's underpinned by vanilla and light floral notes. There's plenty of peat on the palate too, backed by olive brine, espresso and chocolate characteristics. Beware: Cask strength means that an overproof alcohol level delivers strong flavor but also a hefty burn.

Description

From Whisky Magazine: "Nose: Fresh, mild antiseptic, subtle peat smoke; Palate: Complex. Smoked haddock, cut plug tobacco, burnt newspapers, but buttery, sweeter cooked fruit notes predominate; Finish: Chewy toffee drying out to oak; Comment: A fine robust dram with lots happening. Laphroaig at its best."

Single Malt

Single malt whiskey, a pinnacle of craftsmanship, is exclusively distilled at a single distillery from 100% malted barley. This meticulous process imparts a unique character, reflecting the distillery's location, climate, and traditional methods. As it matures in oak barrels, it develops a complex flavor profile with malt sweetness, fruity notes, and hints of oak. Cherished for its quality and depth, single malt whiskey embodies a distillery's artistry and distinct terroir. Whether enjoyed neat, with water, or in a cocktail, it symbolizes tradition, expertise, and the rich heritage of whiskey-making.
