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…

The first nip is almost unsinkable if this is your introduction to Islay malts but give it a second try and chances are you’ll be hooked for life. Nectar of the Gods!
I cannot believe the taste of this scotch! Technically, I should not like it at all. So why do I keep drinking it? It has an unmistaken (medicinal) character like no other. Boring it is not! After you drink the first glass you swear you will never drink it again until you find yourself going back to it again and again and again. Unbelievable. Not for everybody.
Wow, not for me this one. Glad i only bought a mini.
You either love or hate this. I love the salt and woodsmoke but can never really enjoy the undercurrent of TCP. On balance it’s good stuff but does include most of what puts some people off whisky.
I've tried and tried and tried. It's just unpleasant. Maybe I'm too young for it still? Just not for me
