- Description
- Laphroaig's second batch of their revamped Cask Strength release, bottled in 2010 at 58.3%, maintains the distillery's signature intensity without compromise. Expect the full force of Islay peat—tar, iodine, and maritime brine dominate the nose and palate, with only a whisper of underlying orchard fruit and vanilla to soften the assault. The high alcohol and lack of chill-filtering deliver a thick, oily mouthfeel and a long, medicinal finish that lingers for minutes. For committed peat devotees seeking undiluted Laphroaig character.
