Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
엷은 황금빛이 잔 안에 고요히 빛난다. 1980년대에 병입된 옛 라프로익답게 요오드와 바다 약초, 모닥불 연기 향이 거침없이 솟아오른다. 한 모금에 짭조름한 피트 연기가 입천장을 덮고 그 아래로 바닐라와 마른 풀의 단맛이 받쳐 준다. 45도의 절제된 도수가 강한 향을 둥글게 감싼다. 소독약 같은 약 기운과 재의 여운이 오래도록 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this one is curiously more towards smoked cereals. A very fragrant, seashore bonfire kind of smoke with kippery notes, wild flowers, kelp, oysters, hessian and lamp oil. There’s a dusting of fruit notes across the surface as well: lychee, passion fruit, melon, orange and mango. The 15s always seem to stand apart from the 10s and this one is no exception. Hints of mushroom, coal dust, wet leaves, white asparagus and then moving more towards ointments and medical embrocations
restaurant Palate
big, bold and fruity but also sharper than the 10s. More lemony, more yeasty and more salty as well. Notes of lime, lemon rind, fresh oysters, mango puree, salted butter and chopped chives. A fug of blue peat smoke slowly drifts across the palate which is pure Laphroaig. A touch of barley sweetness, some menthol tobacco and finally more medical and hospital notes such as good old iodine and TCP
timer Finish
long, full of smoked lemon barley water, engine oils, mechanical notes, soot, earth, mushrooms, tobacco, lemons in brine and herbal toothpaste. Salty peat notes in the aftertaste
