Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

close to the Wieber but sharper and more mineral although a little les expansive. Sea breeze and oysters, less medicinal than expected. Hints of sour cream, yoghurt. Gets a little fruitier and more floral (lilies, not too ripe strawberries),. Nice balance, an ultra-clean young Laphroaig

restaurant Palate

we have exactly the same differences with the sherried one as on the nose. Sharper, more uncompromising, all on peat, freshly cut apple and pepper. Flawless. The finish is a bit longer than its sibling’s, maybe more elegant… In short, don’t look for lots of subtleties but if you like big bold young natural peat, this one’s for you. 85 points . Laphroaig 10 yo Cask Strength (55.7%, OB, circa 2006)
