Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

very rich, farmyardy and jammy, thanks to the sherry cask I guess. Cow stable and dried seaweed, then the expected medicinal touches, camphor, antiseptic and then quite some leather. Fairly extreme, so to speak. With water: well, water erased the sherriness, or at least most of it. This is classic Laphroaig now, very coastal, smoky, medicinal… and appealing

restaurant Palate

wham! Big, rich, sweet, honeyed, orangey and very spicy/smoky. Frankly delicious, it’s almost peated orange marmalade. With water: it’s the earthiness that comes out now, roots, gentian, liquorice, then salt…

timer Finish

long, smoky and salty, with the orange marmalade back in the aftertaste
