“It's my favorite malt, ticks all the boxes. Peaty, Smokey, Briney, smooth. It's my go to. Even better when you get it for around the £30 mark. Although I was gifted a bottle of Ardbeg 10 at Christmas and that gives this a good run for it's money mind. But laphroaig and the whole community are just one I'm happy to be apart of. Top malt. ”

Description

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.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

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.

Palate

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.

Finish

Big and drying, as the savoury, tarry notes build up with an iodine complexity.

Overall

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…
