This scotch welcomes you with scents of apple, citrus, malt, and oily peat. The palate is a bit of a letdown, quite watery, with malt, simple syrup, and orchard fruit flavors again, along with some slightly charred woodsmoke. The finish is smoky, sweet, and short. It doesn't linger long enough to pick up much more than that. This relatively new expression from Laphroaig almost feels like a peated Glenlivet, a resemblance that I picked up on because I'd just had the Nadurra a day or two earlier. It's eerily gentle and a bit out of character for the distillery. I know based on the marketing that it's supposed to contain a bunch of different whiskies subjected to different cask aging or finishing, including sherry, but some of those are (at least for me) too subtle to be noticeable. This could be a decent introduction for new whiskey drinkers to the Islay style. For more experienced drinkers, it's a little league Laphroaig.
