Laphroaig10YearOld

<p>Laphroaig 10 Year Old Islay MaltA thick coating of peat isn’t enough to cover a soft, oaky background on the nose. Continuous gentle waves of dry peat lap upon the taste buds but are balanced by a sweet malt middle and the most hesitant of vanillas. With a long and peaty finish , the shy vanilla now begins to show as the oak adds a certain dryness. A gentle giant.Critic’s Tasting Note:”This expression offers an uncompromising note of brine-laden peat and iodine, with charcoal and sweeter fruit notes also present. The palate is equally out there, with old-fashioned fabric Band-Aids, bladderwrack seaweed, black pepper, smoldering peat, vanilla, caramel, and sweet oak. The finish is as big as everything else, with barbecue, iodine, and asphalt. Still a classic!”92/100 points, WHISKY ADVOCATELaphroaig 10 Year Old Islay Malt</p>
