Wouldn’t you know it; this tastes like Laphroaig 10! But finished in SHERRY CASKS!
Of course we get the classic smoky, charred, tar from Laphroaig that we all know and love. BUT add in some dried fig and raisin, with a slight medicinal note on the nose, all mingling with a little cinnamon and clove.
The palate starts with a light vanilla, and cinnamon dryness, and continues with a sticky vanilla/plum pudding. Some malt, pear, and apples come through after a little time on the palate, and then it finishes smoky. Slightly drying, with lingering fruitiness, a bit of vanilla. But magnificently smoky throughout. A beautifully delicious and smoky Single Malt from Laphroaig. God bless
