Laphroaig Select

3.5 actually. Maybe I’m already too happy but this was a pleasant surprise. One of the few Laphroaigs 18 and under I DONT own

Scotch Whisky Experience 4. Pro Note: sparkling gold, peat and ripe red fruits, sweet with a dry ashy flavor giving a rich finish.

Tasty. Nice entry level. Tastes like Islay whisky by no peat

I purchased this bottle at a local supermarket on our way to Orciatico, Lajatico in Tuscany. Considering it’s price, an excellent dram. While the five different maturation methods result in a slight identity crisis, it’s nevertheless a gentle, sweet, approachable whisky with a whiff of peat smoke. Perfect as a daily sipper.

TALISKERの様な強いクセはないが、若干のクセはある。ただスッキリと飲み口である為、飲みやすい。
