Laphroaig 10 Year Old
One of the smokiest standard expression Islay single malts. What really makes this stand out above its rivals is the richness, complexity and body which are all here in bigger amounts than normally expected for a ten year old. This has some wonderful flavours of iodine, peat smoke, seaweed, plus some surprising sweetness, spiciness and fruitiness.
Try this with just the smallest splash of water and you will get even more flavour out of it.
