Laphroaig 25 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky

70cl / 50.9% / Distillery Bottling - This new cask-strength bottling of Laphroaig 25yo is a very different beast to the old 25yo (and in our opinion, a big improvement). Rich and smouldering, with a big coal hit and a lingering seaweed character. Tremendous stuff. Read more...

Colour: Bright Red Gold. Nose: At bottling strength the aroma seems quite closed giving only a rich, sweet scent but a touch of water releases all the multitude of different flavours. The initial sweet, sherry sweetness is quickly followed but the time-honoured Islay peat tang. After this opening burst of flavour there is a smooth fruit ripeness that complements the tang of salt in the background. Body: Rich round and full. Palate: The burst of peat that fills the mouth is quickly restrained by a sherry sweetness that slowly develops into spicy apple fruitiness. Finish: Very long and warming leaving a distinct tang of Islay.
