This is phenomenal. On the nose, it's sunburnt vintage leather and the Frogmorton oriental blend I smoked recently. Very smoky. Sensate explosion with an oily mouthfeel. The first sip gives you the peat unabashedly but it's actually sweeter than I'd have expected. It's mellow vanilla and tart pear, and there's a lovely tobacco sweetness too. Wispy smoke finish. This is my kind of dram - and I'm glad I chose it to accompany the cold months ahead - but damn, I need the sea. Update: Revisited this one after a year went by. This has to be the best everyday Islay malt. Save Uigeadail for a late winter's night; take a Lagavulin on an October camping trip; sip on Port Charlotte or Kilchoman on a warm spring day or while on the docks; let Bunnahabhainn accompany a philosophy journal; but Laphroaig 10 in its smooth, golden finesse is one to enjoy on any and every occasion, whether in celebration of a milestone or of the simple goodness of the mundane.
