Laphroaig 10 Years Old Cask Strength Batch #017

Description

Laphroaig 10 Years Old Cask Strength Batch #017 represents whisky making in its purest form – bold, uncompromising and intensely authentic. Since 1815, Laphroaig has defined the unmistakable Islay style with its powerful peat smoke and maritime character. Batch 017 continues this legacy, matured for ten years and bottled at a robust 58.3% ABV at natural cask strength. Non-chill filtered and unreduced, it delivers exactly what comes from the barrel – raw Islay intensity. The nose bursts with peat smoke, heather and sea salt, followed by a rich sweetness of apple compote, vanilla cream and pears in syrup, lifted by a hint of cool menthol. On the palate, bold sweetness meets maritime salinity and smoky depth, creating a complex and layered experience. The exceptionally long finish reveals black pepper spice, grassy smoke and tarry peat notes, making it a quintessential Laphroaig expression. Enjoy it neat for full intensity or add a splash of water to unlock its softer nuances. A must-have for fans of cask strength Islay single malt Scotch whisky.
