Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

certainly a more modern profile, but it's immediately a good one. A lot of lemon peel, smoked olive oil, seawater, some green olives in brine, mineral salts and dried seaweed. I also find a touch of pink grapefruit about the nose too. It manages to be rather salty but without also being too ashy, which I often find with modern Laphroaigs

restaurant Palate

big and punchy. Lots of salty things such as oysters, seawater, anchovy paste and pickled mussels. It's also rather brutally medicinal with mercurochrome and impressions of bandages and TCP. Some tarry rope in there too

timer Finish

good length, rather sooty, deeply smoky and briny with pickling juices and black pepper
