- Description
- Laphroaig's intensely medicinal character shines in this 2005 distillate, matured for 15 years in ex-bourbon casks by independent bottler Elixir Distillers. The nose carries distinctive peat smoke layered with dates, molasses, and carbolic soap, while the palate develops savoury maritime notes of seaside barbecues, red apples, and grilled char. Rich and coating on the tongue with a long smoky finish. A benchmark Islay expression for those seeking uncompromising peat and brine.
