An older style bottling of Laphroaig's 18 year old single malt Scotch whisky, boasting a neat label and presentation tube. This livery existed between 2013 and 2016 when the 18 year old was discontinued.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Very big. This is a beast of a whisky, with a breakfast character (granary toast, salty butter, a touch of orange juice and coffee). After a while of nosing it you’ll start to get banana loaf, developing alongside the applewood smoke, perhaps even cocoa too.
Very rounded and thick. Golden Syrup? Salt spray, fiery wood spices, dark and brooding peat, star anise, dark chocolate and stewed prunes.
Very long, with liquorice, Seville orange marmalade, salty butter and kippers.

Straight up.There is no substitute.
Not what it used to be, but ok. Price has gone mad though...
A nose that fills the room like an exquisite subtle perfume. The taste seems to go on forever, changing from moment to moment, form turf to a sudden smoke going slowly towards a slightly seebreeze kind of salty aftertaste. Really can't imagine anything better in the whisky area.
please in heavens name tell me you did not mix Dr Pepper with an 18 year old scotch. The ancients are weeping do to your alcohol abuse. This is great stuff if you have better sense than to mix it with Dr Pepper.
Finest Islay I've tried. Vastly better than the 10 and the quarter cask or Ardbeg 10 or supernova or Lagavulin 16, which are in the same cabinet but have gone untouched. Great peat but refined from nose to finish.
