What it’s like

The smoothest and most affordable version of Laphroaig. It combines whiskies matured in several types of cask to obtain a rounder, sweeter profile than the classic ten-year-old, although the house’s medicinal smoke is still there. It has red fruit, vanilla and some spice alongside the peat and salt. It is a good way into the Laphroaig style for those not yet ready for its more intense versions.

Nose
Peat smoke, red fruit and vanilla, with a touch of iodine.
Palate
Medium and sweet. Soft peat, caramel, spice and salt, with some red fruit.
Finish
Medium, smoky and slightly sweet, with a maritime, iodine hint.
