Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

not bad, very smoky and peaty, with plenty of ashes followed by apple and lime juice, then the expected tincture of iodine and mercurochrome. In short, it's unmistakably Laphroaig, perhaps just a tad fruitier

restaurant Palate

I like it, it's more robust than the infamous Select of yore, with a sense of peated apples and ashes doused in grapefruit juice. The texture is somewhat light but not as frustrating as one might have feared

timer Finish

it's at this stage that the lack of oomph becomes apparent, the finish is short, but nonetheless on pleasant notes of lapsang souchong and oysters
