Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

  • Producer's Tasting Note

    • Colour

      Antique Gold.

    • Nose

      From the bottle there is a nice sherry aroma of sweet sultanas and raisins with a hint of sweet liquorice and only the slightest tang of peat. Adding a little water brings out the marzipan and almond aroma with a counterpoint of creamy nuts and lots of ripe fruits but again there’s only the slightest tang of peat smoke.

    • Body

      An intense and profound deepness.

    • Palate

      Without water a massive explosion of peat fills the mouth with huge amounts of oakiness only just moderated by the sweeter heavy sherry flavour. Adding a touch of water only slightly moderates the massive peat reek which very slowly fades and just allows a little of the sweeter sherried flavours to come through although there is always that burst of peat smoke that dries the mouth.

    • Finish

      Concentrated peat and thick sherried oak with a deep dryness.

    William Anderson,

    I have loved Laphroaig whisky for over 30 yrs. I bought my first bottle of PX in Brisbane airport on my way home in 2014. I love whisky that has been in sherry barrels and this was a no brainier to me. It gives the Laphroaig taste an added dimension.
