Laphroaig 16 Year Old (70cl, 48%)
$135.00
Originally a limited edition to celebrate the distillery’s 200th anniversary, Laphroaig 16 is now a small-batch occasional release. It takes the distinctive medicinal, seaside character of Laphroaig’s spirit and gives it a few extra years to mellow out and calm down, creating a rich and smoky whisky with more complexity and an elegance that’s not often seen elsewhere in the Laphroaig range – spicy peat smoke with well-worn leather and soft, sweet vanilla.

Tasting Note
Nose: Roasted nuts and burning peat, with a slow build of maple syrup on pancakes and vanilla pod.
Palate: Still rich in peat with a touch of iodine, following by a subtle floral whisper, fresh citrus, and honeyed barley.
Finish: Coastal salinity and the last embers of a bonfire.
