Laphroaig
Laphroaig Scotch Cask Strength 10 Year Old // 700 ml
Product Description
It's no secret that Scotland is renowned for its whiskies. Iodine-rich scotch from the Islay region is among the country's most characterful drams, with Laphroaig offering one of the most exceptional medicinal malts. The Laphroaig distillery was founded on the south coast of Islay by Alexander Johnston in 1815. Named after its location, ‘broad hollow by the bay,’ this family-owned and operated distillery benefited from a surplus of barley along with a water source that was particularly soft and peaty. The resulting whisky was one of exceptional character and highly appreciated by whisky blenders like Lagavulin. Its reputation spread around the globe, eventually becoming the first whisky to be given the International Spirit Challenge Trophy in 1999.
The richly flavored Laphroaig 10 Year is a classic peated drink from Islay. The scotch is full-bodied and smoky with a lovely residual sweetness that complements its hints of seaweed and salt. After noting its peaty characteristics, discover a warming finish that lingers in the throat and beckons the taster for more.
Tasting Notes
Boasts a medium caramel color when poured into a glass. Scents of smoke, decay, salt, charcoal, leather and wet stone hit the nose, opening up to herbal ocean tones, peanut butter fudge and a sweet gumminess. The first impression Laphroaig leaves on the palate is a playful dance between the salty and sweet. You'll note impressions of sea spray and breakfast porridge on the finish, fading to that classic smoky peat for which Islay whiskies are known.
Like all Scotch whiskies, Laphroaig 10 Year is best enjoyed neat or with a little water added. It's also perfectly acceptable to drink on the rocks. Feel free to experiment with cocktails like the Velvet Smoking Jacket, a perfectly smoky cocktail made with Laphroaig, Mezcal, Velvet Falernum and orange bitters. Shake with ice, strain and serve the cocktail neat with a simple lemon peel garnish.
