- Description
- The first batch of Laphroaig's cask strength 10-year-old (2009 release) at 57.8% delivers the distillery's full arsenal of peat, brine, and medical phenols. Matured in bourbon wood, it maintains the characteristic iodine-and-smoke signature while allowing the underlying sweetness and vanilla to push through. A benchmark expression from the early cask strength releases, ideal for those building a collection of this influential series.
