Laphroaig 10 Year Old is an iconic Islay single malt whisky, renowned for its heavily peated profile. Expect intense smoke, medicinal iodine, and a hint of seaweed. This whisky captures the bold spirit of Islay and is one of Scotland's most characterful drams. Islay's world-famous Laphroaig distillery is known for its medicinal malts, and its signature 10-year-old is no exception thanks to its full maturation in bourbon barrels, which serves to highlight that individual distillery character. This beauty has won a slew of industry awards over the decades and we love it.
Non-chill filtered for maximum flavour. A must-have for peat lovers!"
Our tasting notes feature a contribution from the longest-serving distillery manager in the brand's history, the wonderful John Campbell, who worked at Laphroaig from 1994 until 2021.
This opens on big, smoky muscular peat notes. There are spices, and liquorice, as well as a big dose of salt. This whisky has become slightly sweeter in recent years, and it appears beautifully on the nose, amidst the classic iodine/sticking plasters and cool wood smoke we love.
Seaweed-led, with a hint of vanilla ice cream and more than a whiff of notes from the first aid box (TCP, plasters etc). The oak is big, and muscles its way into the fore as you hold this whisky over your tongue. An upsurge of spices develop – cardamom/black pepper/chilli.
Big and drying, as the savoury, tarry notes build up with an iodine complexity.
The only malt from Laphroaig’s range that John Campbell recommends with water; try it, it opens up the palate massively, providing a dazzling array of additional flavours…

Tastes like crap, poured most my mini down the sink, salty tourist scotch for those that think they're learning. The only kick I got was the one I gave myself for buying this over Glenfiddich
This dram boasts the famous nuances of Islay. Bold, crisp mouthwatering single malt with a a smoky, peated, salty sweet dark chocolate. Yes please!
I think previous reviewers are right- it's not as smoky or dry as it used to be, so half a star off for that, but still utterly distinctive- on a blind tasting it would still be obvious that you are drinking Laphroaig 10 year old. If you don't like big flavours where subtlety takes a back seat, particularly smoke and the iodine that infuses coastal distillations, then you probably won't like this, or most Islay whiskies. Nor does it lend itself to sipping on hot days while relaxing on an inflatable off a Mediterranean beach. But in front of a log fire as night night falls, or on reaching the summit of Laitach or An Teallach, at £28 a bottle if you can find it, it's probably unbeatable
My husband absolutely loves this whiskey, delivery service is excellent, he will buy again
If you receive a bottle at 18 years old and think this is whisky you spend the rest of your life looking for something comparable or better and you might if you spend £300 at current prices otherwise…. Love laphroaig Different in your face sea smoke iodine and that under flavour you forget whisky
