Laphroaig Pre-Royal Warrant Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 15 Year Old

Colour

Deep burnished amber with bronze-gold highlights and a subtle copper glow.

Nose

Intense peat smoke frames a maritime core of iodine and sea spray. Beneath, dark caramel and citrus zest mingle with leather, ash, and a whisper of tobacco. Subtle vanilla sweetness and sherry-dried fruits emerge, lending depth and elegance to this Islay nose that promises a long, smoky, warming finish.

Palate

On the palate, volcanic peat and iodine-laced sea breeze fuse with a silky sweetness. Vanilla and toffee ride the robust oak, while dried fruit and cocoa hints emerge from the sherry warmth. Peppered spice lingers, leaving a briny, resinous finish that is quintessentially Islay and exquisitely aged.

Finish

Long, coastal finish of peat smoke and iodine, with a medicinal veil that tightens around the palate. Subtle vanilla and dried fruit drift in, then the smoke lingers, drying to a saline, ash-savory glow that slowly fades into warmth.
