Review

A complex but balanced whisky that showcases Laphroaig's signature peaty character, enhanced by the maritime influence of its coastal maturation and the rich, fruity notes from European oak casks. The result is a harmonious blend of smoky, sweet, and oceanic flavours that linger on the palate offering a smooth yet intense experience, making it a favourite for peat lovers seeking something distinct. It took home Gold Outstanding at the IWSC in 2014, and we wholeheartedly agree.
