- Description
- Laphroaig's experimental first release in the Elements series uses cloudy wort to intensify flavour and phenolic expression. Cask strength alcohol (58.6%) carries powerful notes of charred liquorice and woody peat smoke, with unexpected brightness from pineapple and clove cutting through the heaviness. This is a whisky for adventurous palates seeking bold, unconventional Islay character.
