Tasting Notes
"Nothing about blending together Macallan and Laphroaig, two very bold but very different, flavors should work. Laphroaig tastes of things that washed up on the shore, and of peat, ham, engine grease, and vanilla. These characteristics overpower the Macallan flavors of sherry, chocolate covered cherries, and dark chocolate, which are relegated to playing a supporting role. The end result is more like a weirdly fruity, chocolaty Laphroaig than a balanced blended malt. "
