Tasting Notes

TWB Tasting Notes:

On the nose, this remarkable expression unveils the classic Laphroaig signature of rich peat smoke intertwined with maritime aromas of sea salt, iodine, and seaweed. Subtle hints of vanilla, honey, and citrus zest emerge from the bourbon barrel maturation, adding layers of sweetness and complexity.

The palate delivers a harmonious blend of robust peatiness and refined sweetness. Flavors of smoky roasted barley, creamy vanilla, and toasted oak seamlessly meld with notes of lemon peel, green apple, and a touch of white pepper. The mouthfeel is smooth and oily, reflecting its extended maturation and the mellowing influence of the bourbon cask.

The finish is exceptionally long and warming, leaving lingering impressions of peat smoke, gentle spice, and a delicate sweetness that balances the bold smoky character. A whisper of maritime salinity and oak tannins adds depth to the enduring conclusion.
