superbly pure and wild Laphroaig after a few days of opening (whilst it was kind of oddly caramelly and candied when the bottle was just opened). Okay, there still is a little vanilla fudge, maple syrup and cappuccino but the coastal notes really got the upper hand. Peat, pepper, oysters, kelp and all that jazz – but just like in the Sestante, no medicine (maybe just faint whiffs of mercurochrome). Also notes of old books. And quite some roasted nuts. Amazingly nosable at such high strength but let’s try it with a little water. So, with water (whilst we had weird lavender aromas when the bottle was newly opened) it gets even more maritime (which makes sense after all) and slightly medicinal indeed this time (bandages, mercurochrome). More a classic Laphroaig now but without any exuberant fruity notes

very punchy attack but relatively round and candied at the same time (apricot jam, candy sugar, baklavas, vanilla), with the distillery character really turning up after that. Peat, lemon, pepper, salt, crystallised oranges… With water: not much change except for more balance and a better compactness. Still very candied

long, peaty, peppery, with a little honey now (orange blossom honey)? A wonderful Laphroaig that didn’t stand water when it was just opened (which is a problem at 61.9%) but that got used to it after a few days
