Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
starts rather yeasty and acidic, on apple peels, lemon and sauvignon blanc, the peat kicking in a little later. Faint hints of antiseptic but not many more medicinal notes. A very simple and youngish Laphroaig actually and seriously, I doubt this is eighteen years old. I’ve got a stash of 3yo hidden somewhere and believe me or not, it smells more mature than this one
restaurant Palate
an immense saltiness and quite some ‘earthy peat’ (tell me about a pleonasm) plus notes of crystallised lemons and quite some liquorice wood. Still simple but waaay more compact and satisfying than on the nose in my opinion
timer Finish
long, balanced, almost perfect now, right between the peat, the lemon and the earthiness
