Laphroaig 15 Year Old Version Single Islay Malt Whisky 43%

Laphroaig 15 Year Old is a refined and more sophisticated version of the classic 10-year expression – here in a vintage bottling from 2008. This single malt presents lively notes of fresh oak and warm peat smoke, supported by a gentle sweetness reminiscent of freshly grated nutmeg and roasted almonds. A subtle saltiness rounds off the overall impression.

On the nose, powerful peat smoke dominates with hints of tar, iodine, and a touch of creosote. A bit of fruit unfolds and blends with elegant smoky swirls, resulting in a rich and complex aromatic profile.

The taste opens with medicinal peat smoke that quickly softens and becomes more harmonious. It is rich, smooth, and well-balanced, with sweetness slowly emerging, followed by intense peat smoke and a hint of malt.

The finish is pronounced but well-calibrated – smoky and balanced, and it carries the flavor elegantly.
