TWB Tasting Notes:
On the nose, this remarkable expression unveils the quintessential Laphroaig character of rich peat smoke and medicinal phenolics, intertwined with hints of seaweed, iodine, and briny sea air. Subtle notes of vanilla, honey, and citrus zest from the bourbon barrel maturation add layers of sweetness and complexity.
The palate offers a harmonious balance between robust peat smoke and refined sweetness. Flavors of creamy vanilla, toasted oak, and caramel seamlessly blend with the signature smoky profile. Hints of grilled pineapple, lemon peel, and a touch of white pepper contribute to a sophisticated and layered tasting experience. The mouthfeel is smooth and oily, reflecting its prolonged maturation and the mellowing influence of the bourbon barrel.
The finish is exceptionally long and warming, leaving lingering notes of peat smoke, gentle spice, and a whisper of maritime salinity. The interplay between the intense smoky character and the subtle sweetness creates a memorable and satisfying conclusion.
