Laphroaig 23 Tasting Notes

Nose: Sweet, sumptuous and sultry smoke meanders out of the glass. A deep peat aroma, brine and hint of seaweed. Spices emerge with sweet bread, cloves and candied ginger.

Palate: Deep and rich peat, rich and heady coal fire plumes explode coating the mouth. This then settles to a rounded and creamy texture showcasing the sweet spice.

Finish: The creaminess fades leaving the smoke lingering. This develops into lapping wave of brine, hints of the medicinal and satisfying warmth.
