The Whisky Advocate
The nose brims with honey, vanilla, lemon drizzle cake, honeydew, and cereal, balanced with iodine, brine, green herbaceous notes, peppery extra virgin olive oil, and grilled smoked bacon rinds. Sweet vanilla, white chocolate, banana, pear, and melon flavors collide with aniseed, licorice, sea salt, fig, salted caramel, taffy, smoked butter, and a gentle oakiness commensurate with its maturity. Dry finish of smoked fish, oak, and lengthy smoke.
“Laphroaig 25 Year Old is the perfect marriage of sherried, oaky flavours from the European Oloroso Sherry Casks and the creamy, smooth, sweet flavours from the ex-American Bourbon Barrels. The Oloroso Sherry Casks and ex-American Bourbon Barrels were filled with newly distilled Laphroaig spirit from day one.Bottled at Cask Strength, it is a perfect fusion of these two most different styles of maturation flavours, made even smoother by the 25 years it has had gently maturing.” – Distillery
