Laphroaig 16 Year Old

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 48%

A limited edition expression released by the legendary Laphroaig Distillery in mid-2021, matured for 16 years in American oak casks. Plenty of familiar south coast Islay smokiness, mellowed slightly by the sweetness imparted from the casks, culminating in a rewarding dram perfect for evening sipping.

Tasting Note

Nose 

Roasted nuts and burning peat, with a slow build of maple syrup on pancakes and vanilla pod.

Palate

Still rich in peat with a touch of iodine, following by a subtle floral whisper, fresh citrus, and honeyed barley.

Finish

Coastal salinity and the last embers of a bonfire.
