The nose on it is fantastic: barnyard funk, oysters, white grapes, and band-aids, giving way to a palate of one of the most brine-laden Laphroaigs ever released with rich notes of fish oil, white pepper, and cream. Peat smoke and greasy peanuts on the finish, with a lingering vegetable flavor I can't quite place...except it reminds me of the smell of a Chia pet, and all throughout the dram is fruity and RANK. It's like my beloved funky Belgian gueuzes found a way to rub off on my Laphroaigs. This surpassed the 2013 Laphroaig Cairdeas Portwood Edition as my favorite Laphroaig Cairdeas ever.
