Laphroaig Quarter Cask Description
Hamish Says...
Our Hamish has had a sip and jotted down his thoughts.
Nose: Big peat smoke notes as if sitting at a campfire on Islay itself. Behind the smoke though there is a distinct tropical fruit and banana note making for an intriguing experience.
Palate: The massive peaty notes carry over to the palate as well as a hint of sea spray - very Islay! Behind these powerful salty smoky notes a gentle sweetness begins to emerge.
Finish: Long and dry with an ashy smoke continuing long after the whisky is gone.
