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.

A new favourite. Lovely smoky sweetness. Delicious stuff, not as good as Lore but very very close.
I saw this bottle getting big reviews online was keen to give it a try. Wow! This is everything I want in a whisky. That unique Laphroaig smoke, balanced perfectly with sweet fruit notes. Laphroaig nailed it with this. My only small gripe would be that the ABV could be higher to bring it on even more, but honestly this bottle will constantly be replaced whenever I finish it. Which will likely be quite regularly.
This is one of my favourite drams. It is smooth, sweet, and smoky. You'd be hard pressed to find a better whisky for the price. Highly recommend.
This is one of my favorite drams from Laphroaig. Perfect balance between peat and sherry.
A beautiful dram, nicely balanced mix of sherry and peat, reminiscent of sweet barbecue sauce. A very moreish whisky, I for one, can’t get enough!
