Laphroaig 27YO Director's Special Single Malts of Scotland
Only exceptional whiskies are selected by their director to be bottled for this exclusive series from The Single Malts of Scotland. Each bottling is aged to perfection, celebrating both the classic characteristics of the distillery and the subtle changes created by time and oak.
Only 210 bottles were produced from a single cask of Laphroaig Single Malt Scotch Whisky, which was aged for more than 27 years.
Tasting notes:
Nose: Chargrilled mango skins and toasted banana with waves of dusty coal smoke explode out of the glass. A wonderful rich heavy note of melted dark chocolate builds with just a hint of fresh mint leaves giving an indication of age.
Palate: An initial tropical sweetness plays on the tongue with flavours of passion fruit and baked mango which are complimented by a dusty, dark smoke and notes of cola and ginger. The peat evolves into rich tobacco and cherry jam.
Finish: Flavours of dried passion fruit and lime linger and develop with the sooty smoke softening while eucalyptus and mint remain.
