Laphroaig Triple Wood

Aroma of light leather and peat. Great mouth feel. Sweet taste and quick to medium finish. Slight smokey taste.

Rich stewed fruit, sherry and honey sweetness enveloped by a subdued version of the 10 year's medicinal briny peat. At 48% it's got a bit of a bite to it and unfortunately, like the 10 year, it hits mid palate acidic and dry. The sweetness almost prevents this from lingering as it fades to a sweet campfire smoke finish. I appreciate the sherried finish but it feels like a bit of failed merger. Neither the sherry or the peat is distinct enough to overcome the acidity and ABV. Decent but not one I'd purchase again. $90 in Ontario.

Not as smoky as the regular laphroaig, but extremely smooth and slightly oily. Absolutely delicious.
