Very good review score, 89 out of 100
A rich, oily whisky with walnut, burnt raisins, prunes and chocolate, finishing long, bitter, dry and very oloroso with a salty aftertaste.

An excellent Laphroaig with lovely fruity sweetness and excellent balance, delivering sweet smoke, maritime notes and peach jam on a very long finish.

A fruity, floral nose gives way to a rougher palate of lemon, virgin oak, liquorice and pepper, with rum influence sometimes overshadowing the young malt.

A really good expression with juicy raisins, stewed plums, herbal honey and darkening milk chocolate, balanced by clean sherry and a long, peppery finish.
