LAPHROAIG 10YO CASK STRENGTH ISLAY SINGLE MALT WHISKY 57.9% 700 ML
Within our Laphroaig 10 Year Old Cask Strength whiskies, Batch 14 holds a particularly grand weight to convey its divergent, yet familiar taste. Tempered through the land, sea, and air of Islay with an unyielding vigor, Batch 14 allows for a flavoursome communication from glass through cork to you.
Deliverance of this Batch 14 whisky, its ingredients melded together by our patient use of time, is characterized by a 58.6% vol cask strength and emits its sweetness and spice, a nicety of hard labour.
The nose will fill with the aroma of leather, pipe tobacco, and vanilla when this dram is pour neat, and the palate pleased with the overwhelming notes of cinnamon, toffee, and fudge. Do it a mark better when a few splashes of water are added to the whisky – the undertones of sea salt and peat smoke reveal themselves in the flavor.
