Laphroaig 25 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
Laphroaig 25 year old has been created by marrying whisky matured in Oloroso Sherry casks with Laphroaig that has been matured in ex-American Bourbon Barrels; both filled with newly distilled Laphroaig spirit from day one. Bottled at 40% Alc./Vol., it is a perfect fusion of these two most different styles of maturation flavours, made even smoother by 25 years of maturation. Packaged in a timber presentation box.
Other reviews... Colour: Bright Red Gold. Nose: At bottling strength the aroma seems quite closed giving only a rich, sweet scent but a touch of water releases all the multitude of different flavours. The initial sweet, sherry sweetness is quickly followed but the time-honoured Islay peat tang. After this opening burst of flavour there is a smooth fruit ripeness that complements the tang of salt in the background. Body: Rich round and full. Palate: The burst of peat that fills the mouth is quickly restrained by a sherry sweetness that slowly develops into spicy apple fruitiness. Finish: Very long and warming leaving a distinct tang of Islay.
