In the words of a certain Alsatian marketing guru: millimetric! That is to say, purity and blade-like precision. A wonderfully thick smokiness that recalls buckets of hot tar, black pepper on smoked mackerel, still warm bonfire embers, seawater, dried kelp and crushed aspirin mixed with seashells and chalk. I just adore this kind of profile which manages to be simultaneously pure, precise, coastal, invigorating and yet also very aromatically complex and rather elegant. There’s also this rich seam of medicine running through it. Bandages, embrocations, antiseptic, floor cleaners and various no-nonsense ointments that are usually confined to hospitals. Some farmyard as well with these hints of raw peat and sheep wool. With water: dilution really brings out the farminess now. There’s dung, silage, mud, clay and big wafting peat smoke. Still in the background though is brine, burning rosemary wood, black olive tapenade and anchovy paste. Totally thrilling Laphroaig!

wow! Superb oiliness. It really has everything: medicine, peat smoke, grease, engine oils, farmyard, seashore brilliance and sharp notes of lemon juice, ash, tar, iodine, seawater and smoked grist soaked in brine. There’s a kind of seesaw between a heavier, greasier profile, the weight of which pulls at the more elevated, sharper, precise qualities of salinity, citrus, sea air, earth, raw barley and smoke. With water: really perfect now with water. Olive oil mixed with brine, green olives, preserves lemons, antiseptic, more iodine, TCP, mercurochrome, bandages. Classical Laphroaig only bigger, broader and more complex. You never get away from this feeling of being caught between the hearth of a peat fire and the seashore

long, lemony, very oily, tarry, briny and full of kiln smoke, engine grease, mineral salts and lots of thick, smoked fish notes
