The Laphroaig 32yo Sherry Casks is a special release from the renowned Islay distillery, celebrating its 200th anniversary in 2015. This limited edition whisky was matured for 32 years in ex-oloroso-sherry casks, resulting in a deep mahogany-colored spirit with a rich and sweet sherry nose, reminiscent of thick Christmas cake and brown sugar. The palate offers intense oak spices and bitter dark chocolate, followed by a long and dry finish with notes of sherried oak. This whisky is a stunning example of the intensely fruity and peaty character that Laphroaig is known for, with great sherry notes of toffee, dried figs, cinnamon, and brown sugar, as well as hints of red berries and ripe mango. Bottled at cask strength, this top-of-the-range expression was released in a limited edition of 5,880 bottles worldwide, making it a highly sought-after collectible. The nose reveals smoked charcuterie, salami Milano, speck, and baked gammon, with a rich, layered aroma that awakens primal urges. On the palate, you'll experience palm sugar, coconut shavings, dried coconut husks, Sri Lankan tea, salted ginger, minced lamb seasoned with cumin, and sesame seeds. The medium-bodied profile carries charred fruits, hints of salt and watermelon, Chinese black bean sauce, lapsang souchong tea, old campfire, and weathered driftwood. The finish is long and lingering with pear and charred driftwood. This whisky embodies a delicate balance between maritime smoke and tropical fruits, offering a complex yet harmonious mix. A myriad of flavors including autumn leaves, herbal tea, matcha, cedarwood, and subtle iodine reveal a sophisticated whisky experience that continues to evolve in the glass. This exceptional expression showcases Laphroaig's signature coastal and medicinal notes while introducing layers of dark chocolate, oak spice, and a refined smoky character.
