A gigantic wallop on first nosing, as you'd expect from a young Laphroaig. N: Shortbread, applewood, salt, caramelized beef, bacon. P: Elegant sweetness, then brine, salty, campfire ash and plastic as you hold it on your tongue. F: more campfire, bandaids, burned green leaves, touch of cocoa. It ends a bit hot when neat. It's easy to pull a lot of interesting flavours from this dram.
