Color

Pale straw

Nose

Kdo zná základní 10y plnění, bude mozná překvapen, jaky vliv mají tyto soudky, whisky je zjemnělá, není tak brutální, řekl bych ze je přístupnější pro ty, co desinfekční prostředky zas az tak nemusejí.Ne ze by jste si jodovost a rašelinu neuzili, ale je za sladkym, příjemnym závojem, vše uhlazené a delikátní.

Taste

V chuti bohaté, rašelinově-kouřové tony, opět lehounce zjemnělé sladkostí.

Finish

Dochuť není tak nekonečná, jako v základním plnění, nebudete ji cítit ještě druhy den ráno, ale nebojte, uzijete si ji.

Comments

Není to takovy majstrštych, jako základní 10y, ale stále skvělych 90/100.

My score is from a bottle (0.7) from 2006 (COde: M011795)

You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

Colour: light gold.

Nose: Peat, but not too overwhelming, creamy and sweetyish.

Taste: neat: firm body, rich, salty, but not too, lightly vanilla and creamy - with water: smoky peat, velvety, sweetyish and creamy, less salty and nutty.

Finish: very long and dry - with water: still long and little sweeter, fruity.

Comments: for me, this is an excellent whisky and even more enjoyable with three drops of water, imho!!

Color

Russetmuscat

Nose

eine schÃ¶ne, mild-rauchige Note steigt in die Nase, sehr maritim-frisch, leichte ZitruseinflÃ�¼sse sowie gut erkennbare Spuren von Banane und Kokos.

Taste

Wie wertvoll sind doch hier die 48%! Eine schÃ¶ne, krÃ¤ftige TrinkstÃ¤rke. Auch mit Wasser kann leicht hantiert werden. Mehr Rauch als in der Nase sowie eine angenehme SÃ�¼ÃŸe machen diesen Laphi zu einem guten Malt am Gaumen.

Finish

Trockener Rauch und GewÃ�¼rzaromen.

Comments

In dieser Preisklasse ohne Frage einer der besten LaphroaigÂ´s.

Color

Pale straw

Nose

Undiluted, very strong peat, some sulphur and coffee. With a few drops of water also tar and buckling show up. The wood is present in the form of vanilla pudding, maybe with some cream as 'creme Suise'. A touch of ashes too. Good!

Taste

Bold peat in the form of charcoal, grilled beef and smoke. Some pencil fragrants from the wood, nice. Also quite some salt and a nuttish feeling.

Finish

Long finish which is quite peppery and salty. Dry and full of smoke, but no monster. The next day the glas still smells peaty.

Comments

It seems to me the 2008 batch is different from the 2007. Have to do some cross checking.
