Laphroaig Select Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 750mL

Laphroaig Select Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a distinctive expression from the renowned Laphroaig Distillery, located on the Isle of Islay, Scotland. This unique whisky is crafted by carefully blending spirits matured in five different cask types: Oloroso sherry butts, Pedro Ximénez seasoned hogsheads, first-fill bourbon quarter casks, virgin American oak barrels, and the classic Laphroaig 10-year-old. The result is a harmonious fusion that balances Laphroaig's signature peaty character with additional layers of complexity and depth. On the nose, it presents classic medicinal peat notes, supported by citrusy and chocolaty sweet nuances. The palate offers a sweet introduction, followed by the classic dry, peaty, and ashy flavors, culminating in a rich finish. The experience concludes with a long, lingering finish, featuring floral hints, marzipan, and limes at the end. Bottled at 40% ABV, Laphroaig Select is an excellent introduction to peated whisky, offering a complex yet approachable profile.
