Laphroaig 34 Year Old - The Ian Hunter Story Book 5: Enduring Spirit
The Ian Hunter Story series concludes here with Book 5, the latest addition to a range of rare and collectable aged whiskies that honours the legacy of the last of the Johnston family to own and manage the Laphroaig distillery between 1908 and 1944. This 34-year-old Laphroaig single malt was matured in first-fill bourbon American oak barrels and Pedro Ximénez hogheads. It was bottled without chill-filtration at 45.5% ABV.
Tasting Note by The Producer
Nose
Lightly peaty with iodine and burnt wood notes. Floral green malt, sweet candyfloss, and vanilla fudge, nimble fruit accents of blueberry and raspberry.
Palate
Sweet and spicy, with the characteristic Laphroaig peaty reek and hints of cold barbecue ash kiln wall. Salted caramel and butterscotch, roast chestnuts, a hint of peach, dried flowers, and white pepper.
Finish
Peaty and malty, with praline notes and lingering sweetness.
