My first Moon Import, the renowned and legendary Italian Independent Bottler, was this "Lawless" Expression, made out from 99% Laphroaig and 1% a Highland Malt. This is one was the bottle 140 of only 384 ever made.
The nose was wonderful. Wet land, rubber, socks, chocolate, gooseberries, wet ashes. Mint, it also gave me this aroma of a sauna. Moss, kelp.
On the palate it was delicious, perfect score. Gooseberries, vanilla, lime and a bomb of salt. Very oily
Aftertaste gave me some crazy merthiolate notes, dentist room, aniseed and leather.
Overall, this one was amazing, full peaty experience. I don't know why Moon import used 1% of a highland malt for this one, but it doesn't matter. My score for it is 95 over 100.
