Smoke and sherry here from Laphroaig! The legendary distillery on the south coast of Islay has gone and released a fab 10 year old single malt Scotch whisky which has been finished in Oloroso sherry casks for over 12 months, and bottled up at 48% ABV. Alongside the familiar, intensely peaty elements of Laphroaig's classic 10 Year Old expression, you'll also find helpings of dark chocolate and maple syrup notes in this one's flavour profile. Yum!
Smoked meats, maple syrup, BBQ lemon, charred oak, a smidge of coffee.
More roasted cedar and peat smoke, with a hint of iodine tucked away. Dark chocolate, honey, and vanilla pod.
A balanced finish of sherried sweetness and smouldering peat.

Fruit, bonfire and cured meats on the nose. Honey glazed bacon with seasalt, jam, kippers and tobacco on the palate. Long, medicinal sweet and smoky finish. Similar to Lagavulin 16. This is what scotch is all about.
It must have been good 'i bought my husband a 2nd bottle and pink grapefruit tonic
If you love: Ardbeg uigeadail, lagavulin 16, and Bowmore 15 sherry cask, you’ll thoroughly enjoy this one! In my opinion, it competes if not surpasses these great bottles, I find that it has much more flavor to offer than its competitors, and for less money.
Outstanding. The sherry cask comes thru. If you are not keen on Laphroag try this one and you may well change your mind. 1st class malt.
I think this is a really tasty dram, rich sherry and peat…what’s not to like?
