Review by Laphroaig

Colour

Its vibrant tawny colour reflects the full strength of this whisky, hinting at the complex notes drawn from the charred oak

Nose

The nuanced aroma reveals whiffs of sweet cereals, fresh oak and pipe tobacco with touches of leather, nutmeg and vanilla.

Palate

The Original Cask Strength is sweet and spicy with notes of vanilla, toffee and sea salt along with hints of cinnamon and pepper.

Finish

Long finish with lingering spice, oak tannins, iodine and sea salt.

Note

Laphroaig 10 Cask Strength satisfies an even greater maturity within Batch 13, continuing our crafted 10 Year Old investment with our dutiful triad of peat, salt, and heather. The 57.9% proof point further expresses the complexity of this crafted batch.

Uncompromised purity remains in Batch 13 of our Laphroaig 10 Year Old Cask Strength. Uncork and savor a bolder flavour through the elements of Islay once again in this timely spirit. Aged for ten years in ex-Bourbon barrels, Batch 13 is barrier-filtered to remove unwanted char particles then bottled directly from the barrel.

Endeavor with us and behold this 57.9% vol cask strength whisky delivering renowned smoke with a particular rugged character and depths of sweet and spicy flavour. Pour this dram neat for scented pleasure with notes of pipe tobacco, leather, and vanilla as aromatics that arouse the nose. Fudge, cinnamon, and toffee draw in the tastebuds as company of pleasure for taste. Sea salt and peat smoke reveal themselves when the whisky is given a bit of water to concentrate the palate.
