Product description

Product description
This Laphroaig whisky combines the characteristic, intense peat smoke of Laphroaig with a high age of 18 years. The longer maturation in ex-bourbon casks gives the Single Malt significantly more vanilla and a subtle fruity complexity in addition to oak notes. Not chill-filtered and therefore bottled at 48% vol.

The Distillery: Laphroaig

Laphroaig (pronounced 'La-froig') means 'the beautiful hollow by a broad bay' in Gaelic. The area around the distillery, which is located on the remote island of Islay (pronounced 'Ei-la') off the west coast of Scotland, is just as beautiful. Laphroaig Whiskies are considered the most smoky-intense malt Whiskies from Scotland. read more

    Aroma: Malt Maritime Notes

    Geschmack: Oak Vanilla Mint

    Abgang: Peat Smoke

    Kommentar: Mein Vergleich ist der 10jährige in Fassstärke. Hier passt der Vergleich sehr gut zwischen jung und alt ????. Peat Smoke vorhanden aber stärker eingebunden, zudem kommt die Eiche/Vanille stärke zum Tragen. Spritzigkeit finden man durch Minze/Menthol im Abgang. Ein wunderbarer Tropfen.

    Aroma: medizinisch zitrusfruchtig

    Geschmack: typisch Laphroaig mit Bourboncaskeinfluss

    Abgang: mittellang

    Kommentar: Das Alter entschärft den wilden Laphroaig und lässt den Brennereichsrakter mitcseinen Zitrusnoten sowie den Reifungseinfluss der Bourbonfässer hervortreten...Lemon Peel Maritime Notes Medicinal Smoke Fruit
