Tasting Note by Master of Malt

Nose- Big, smoky muscular peat notes with spices, liquorice, and a big dose of salt. A touch of sweetness has emerged in recent years, beautifully complementing the classic iodine/sticking plasters and cool wood smoke.

Palate- Seaweed-led, with hints of vanilla ice cream and medicinal notes (TCP, plasters). Oak makes a bold appearance, followed by an upsurge of spices — cardamom, black pepper, and chilli.

Finish- Big and drying, with tarry and iodine complexity building up.

Overall- The only Laphroaig malt that John Campbell recommends with water. Try it, as it opens up the palate massively, revealing a dazzling array of additional flavors.
