Nose- Salted caramel, raspberries, peat smoke, iodine, vanilla
Palate- Peat smoke initially, iodine, oak, dark chocolate, plum jam, honey
Finish- Long, thin finish with notes of bonfire, peat smoke, and dark chocolate
I’ll start this off by saying im not the biggest Laphroaig fan in the world, but this one is very pleasant. The nose is good, but restrained at the same time. Nice balance of peat, sweetness, and fruits on the nose, but everything seems a little tame and I feel like there could be more. On the palate, peat prevails... with a nice balance of oak, dark chocolate and a plum-jam note that is quite enjoyable. The finish is, again, dominated by iodiny- peat, and wraps up with the dark chocolate note again.
