Laphroaig Four Oak 1L

I got this whisky from Delhi duty free and regret why I have purchased only single bottle.
As mentioned in previous review one need to take it slow. Smokey and tasty...worth trying...

Simply the best single malt ever made. For the immature, it probably tastes like the first time they tried wine and expected it to taste like grape juice. To the educated, this is a sweet, mellow, rich, and complex taste extravagance. Each breath brings a new, flavor that goes on forever. You can literally enjoy the lasting tastes of a sip of Laphroaig Four Oak for longer than you can enjoy an entire bottle of some other whiskey's. If you simply want to get drunk, get a bottle of something else if you want to enjoy, get this, but take it slow, it's worth it.

Very good

Deeply disappointing. Where the four casks appears is none to be taste. Feels like drinking cheap immature whisky out of a dirty ashtray. No complexity at all, just strong and persistent nose notes of smoke. There's lots of better single malt options for a cheaper price.

Well certainly peaty. leaves a lingering taste in my mouth, my favorite single malt

Picked it up at Frankfurt airport duty free, as I hadn't seen it before. I really like it. I enjoy the oak bite, vanilla tones, with the distinctive Laphroaig malt and smoke. The trend towards bourbon, sherry and sweet barrels loses me. I like oak. This brings it all into balance. I've also got the Laphroaig Select and Quarter Cask, and I think a slight preference for Four Oak.

This is a marmite whisky. I'm not Laphroaig's biggest fan but this is smooth stuff. This has the elements of Laphroaig I remember. Tried The Lore and Quarter Cask recently and this is not quite as good as those two (I preferred the 1/4 cask to Lore myself). The marketing team probably had more say in it's outcome than I'd like but it's still pretty good. Tasted it alongside Ledaig 10 and Bowmore 15. Held it's own but prefer the other two, as they have more body than this. Care has gone into this, even if "Four Oaks" was decided by committee.

Превосходный ненавязчивый очень питкий лафроиг! Просто превосходный и довольно-таки сложный как и нос,так и вкус.

I'm an aficionado by no means but definitely have come to love Islay whiskies in general. I think the tasting note from Masters of Malt is accurate, and this drink makes for a perfectly good and rich taste experience. Certainly both spicy and peaty enough, although I'm not speaking from a lot of experience with other Laphroaig malts! A drop of water does it no harm in my opinion.

Possibly confusing to some people’s palates with all this wood in the mix, but I found the flavors interesting and enjoyable.
Toffee sweetness on the nose, along with rusty nail and young leather. Palate is husky (as in grain husks), with vanilla notes and the typical medicinal Laphroaig flavors. Long, spicy (but smooth) finish, with lingering smoke.
