Released in 2004, this bottling was aged for around five years before being finished in a quarter cask for several months, the size of the cask is quite small, thus does not require such a long maturation. This remains a truly great achievement from Laphroaig.
Nose: Oily and buttery nose, with toffee, nuttiness, hickory, bicarbonate of soda, rum and raisin ice cream and zest.
Palate: Big rush of sweetness, in fact it’s an explosion of sweetness, with fiery chilli heat, TCP, sweet cereals and a touch of cola syrup.
Finish: Medium-length, but becomes fruity, with custard and cigar smoke.

Big fan of this one. I am a big bourbon fan, and i recently got into scotch, i don't like scotch with no smoke in it, the smokier the scotch the better it tastes to me and this is a prime example of a damn good smokey scotch

Wonderful nose: petty, toffee / caramel. Taste: sweet, warm, buttery. Finish: long finish with light smokey flavour hints of fruit and caramel. Yes, it is available in Canada 🇨🇦 picked up a bottle on sale for $60 CDN

First hit is butter/spice/licorice up front, then goes crisp and fruity, with a hint of peat that lingers nice and long. Not as smoky as other selections from Laphroaig though. Which is what I think of when I hear “Laphroaig”. Nice complex drink. Many layers to this one.

Does not get much better than this , sublime perfection.

Let me summarize: - Amazing value at 48%- Complex and rich, great burn - an acquired taste- Initial flavors are huge licorice/aniseed followed quickly by, sweet peaty fresh apple and fruit - Smoke is actually a little understated, mostly on the finish, I need more smoke...- Less medicinal than the 10yr version, which I also love. I could always do with more iodine and sea salt- If you are a whisky novice, don't try it or you'll be wasting your money. This is for manly men with long beards not man-boys. You need to develop your palate. Took me a while to get into peat. but once you're into it, it's amazing. One dram is never enough, my bottle is disappearing fast! If you like Glenfiddich/Glenlivet or (God forbid) any kind of Johnny Walker/Chivas blended rubbish, then stay away or it will offend your genteel senses and (lack of) sensibility.

One of the best Islay’s, It’s almost a liqueur scotch. I definitely don’t mean that in a bad way, the finish just goes on and on and on .......

I'm not very well versed with malts but after discovering Laphroaig Quarter Cask, it is always the one I endeavour to return to

Smells like kerosene oil

Laphroaig QC is the "broad bay" dram that made me come back to Islay. Truly a complex , well balanced and savory drop. Behind the smoke there is a magical sweetness that lasts on the palate. Best non age statement I've tried and enjoyed in many a while.
