Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

powerful of course, peaty of course, coastal or course, a little medicinal of course, not too complex of course, but darn nice of course. An extremely clean and zesty ‘expression’ of young Laphroaig. With water: as often (always?) it’s the organic/wild part that gets louder. Barnyard, ‘wet sheep on Islay’ (well) and quite some menthol. Wet rocks. Oh, and gentian, which is pretty cool!

restaurant Palate

sure it’s extremely punchy but sometimes Laphroaig can be quite smooth at very high strength, and that’s the case here. Very beautiful combination of citrus fruits and smoke/tar. With water: more mineral and almondy

timer Finish

long, ultra-clean
