Official tasting notes:
Nose: Sweet, stewed apples topped with crispy, slightly caramelized pastry. This is underpinned by hints of cereal, tanned leather and vanilla.
Palate: Upfront sweet and spicy notes, with notes of vanilla and sea salt intermingled with savoury notes of pork crackling with hints of freshly ground black pepper.
Finish: Long, warming finish with notes of gentle spice, charred oak, smoked mackerel and sea salt encapsulated in an oily mouthfeel.

Description
This is the 16th batch of the Islay distillery’s 10-year-old, cask strength expression and it packs a beautiful and smokey wallop!
Aged 10 years, it’s barrier-filtered from the cask to remove unwanted char particles – and that’s all that comes between you and the real Laphroaig. The distillery doesn’t chill-filter the whisky and they don’t reduce its natural strength resulting in Laphroaig’s blue peat smoke and nutty barley flavours
The series started in 2009 when Laphroaig began releasing special cask strength batches of their 10yo whisky once a year that unfortunately never make it in their line up for the Australian market. But never fear fellow peat-lovers, we’ve included them in our ever-growing whisky portfolio for your smoky consideration.
