Laphroaig Cask Strength Batch #013 ex-Bourbon Barrels 57.9% 700ml information

This bottling is from batch #013, the original cask strength edition of the medicinal 10-year-old single malt from Islay's bestselling distillery, Laphroaig. Known for its robust and smoky character, Laphroaig achieves its signature flavor by drying malted barley over an Islay peat fire. This unique smoke imparts an intense, rich flavor profile. Matured in ex-bourbon casks for a decade and bottled up at a formidable 57.9% ABV in January 2021, this whisky is powerfully flavorsome with a full-bodied and rugged profile.

The 13th batch of Laphroaig's 10 Year Old Cask Strength single malt is a testament to the distillery's commitment to quality. Aromas of sweet biscuits, smoked cedar, and Manuka honey intermingle with pipe tobacco, old leather, candle wax, and hints of vanilla. On the palate, you'll find notes of burnt oak, barbecued marshmallow, toffee, sea salt, and Belgian caramel waffles, complemented by roasted coffee beans, sticky toffee pudding, and white pepper, all wrapped in waves of peat smoke.

This edition has been noted for its dominant wooden and peat notes, which slightly overpower the malt and sherry flavors. Despite being less complex than previous batches, it's still a quaffable dram, showcasing a modern whisky style that many will enjoy. It has a relatively oily viscosity and a high-intensity bouquet featuring intense peat smoke, smoked bacon, maritime notes, herbs, honey, vanilla, and pipe tobacco. It provides a good balance between sweetness and dryness, with well-integrated alcohol and a heavy body. Overall, it remains a great bottling and probably the best value for money OB (Original Bottling) of Laphroaig currently available.
