Laphroaig 10 years old Tasting note

By Miguel at 2010 Dec,16 in Tasting , Laphroaig

Laphroaig 10 Year Old is an all-malt Scotch Whisky from the remote island of Islay in the Western Isles of Scotland. Laphroaig, pronounced "La-froyg", is a Gaelic word meaning "the beautiful hollow by the broad bay".

In making Laphroaig, malted barley is dried over a peat fire. The smoke from this peat, found only on Islay, gives Laphroaig its particularly rich flavour.

Laphroaig is the best selling Islay single malt in the world and not without reason! Great whisky.

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (88): inexistent. peat, iodine, salt, a little sweetness malt. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (96): . sweet, many peat, barley, some peat. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (92): no finish. many peat and sea. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Laphroaig 10 year with 92 points over 100.
