This peated whisky is renowned for its bold, smoky taste, followed by a hint of seaweed and a surprising sweetness. Full-bodied with a long finish, it truly embodies the quintessential Laphroaig character. This starts as a nice smelling Scotch. Peat is prominent, but not overpowering, with a mix of smoke, mesquite wood, rotting wood, and salt. It’s more of a thin, smoky, and dusty peat, and less of a savory, meaty peat.
