Laphroaig Pre-Royal Warrant Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1980's Bottling) (75cl) 10 Year Old

Colour

Rich sun-kissed amber with coppery highlights.

Nose

Peat smoke dominates with medicinal iodine and sea-salt tang, supported by toasted barley and ash. A whisper of vanilla and honey adds gentle sweetness, while a briny coastal mineral undercurrent lingers, like a sea breeze over warmed peat.

Palate

Distinctive Laphroaig peat drives a bold, smoky core with iodine, sea salt and medicinal notes. Rich vanilla and toasted oak mingle with briny tang and a whisper of citrus. Full-bodied yet silky, it coats the palate with charred wood and subtle pepper, finishing long with coastal smoke and a lingering medicinal warmth.

Finish

Long, maritime peat and iodine linger, a smoky, briny finish with sea-salt facets. Sherry-derived fruit and dark chocolate weave through the aftertaste, then warm spice and oak taper to a refined, lingering ember.
