BATCH 009 - Bottled Feb2017 116.2 Proof Dark honey colored, medium bodied, creamy mouthfeel. Nose: smoked brisket, sea salt, sweet barbecue, seaweed, brine, campfire smoke, peat, and some medicinal notes Palate: seaweed, brine, and peat smoke out of the gate. The whisky heats up in the middle with campfire smoke, meatiness, sweetness, and salt joining in. The finish is very long. It starts with a big flourish of warming camp smoke and bbq brisket. As the heat slowly simmers down, sweet barbecue brisket, salt, and residual peat smoke linger on the palate. Unmistakably Laphroaig and absolutely unforgettable. If you’re into peat smoke, you have to try this! If you aren’t, it’s unlikely to win you over.
