Review
An intensely peated whisky that delivers a robust flavour profile characterized by secondary maturation in smaller quarter casks. This process blends the classic peat of Laphroaig with a sweet and minerally salty flavour profile. The result is a complex dram that will be intense for newcomers but an enjoyable variation for those that like the 'peat meets sea' style.

This is an exceptional value whisky - often found for under $100!
