About

Laphroaig produces one of the most strongly flavoured of all Scotch whiskies. Their core range is known for the 'band-aid signature', but most of the other expressions also have a distinctive, medicinal peatiness.

General description

Recently found this dusty, old bottle near a job site in Oceanside, CA.
Neck pour.
Neat, this is a challenging whiskey to enjoy.
Honey, a camphor like note and slight peat on the nose, not much else.
Thick, oily and medicinal palate with a slight, smokey, honey note.
Finish is long with a semisweet, eucalyptus type note.
Hope this gets better with time open.

pfeffrig und rauchig in der Nase.
Im Geschmack dem 10Jährigen Standard ähnlich nur deutlich mehr Pfeffer.
Im Abgang Rauchig und etwas Asche.

General description

Really thought I'd like this, but more of a throat punch than I like and I like a good throat punch.
