Laphroaig, Quarter Cask, Islay, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (48%)

Description

Laphroaig Quarter Cask is inspired by the small casks often used for Scotch Whisky in the 19th century and frequently transported across the Glens by packhorse. Some are still maturing to recreate some of the Quarter Casks and the flavours they produce. Laphroaig is transferred from our larger style barrels into the Quarter Casks, followed by further maturation periods. The additional oak influence creates a soft sweetness and velvety feel when first tasted, and then the intense peatiness unique to Laphroaig bursts through.

Critics reviews

John Hansell 91/100

The whisky begins sweet and creamy, with notes of vanilla, honey, and ripe malt reminiscent of a malting floor). Then, the Laphroaig signature peat smoke, seaweed, tar, and medicinal notes emerge. Bottling at 48% and without chill-filtering keeps the whisky from being dulled down. It is a very dynamic whisky. Nicely done.
John Hansell, Whisky Advocate
