LCBO Note Status A Vintage Assessments Explorer's Selection!
TASTING NOTE: Readily identifiable as a Laphroaig: smoke, peat, and seaweed drifting in and out, but with vanilla, and honey there too. The wave of peat grows in the mouth and coats the mouth, with nut toffee, sea spray, and rich, full, and honeyed malt at the core. Wonderful.
