A revelation to some but simply disgusting to others, Laphroaig 10 is probably the most intense of all Single Malts. Your taste buds are confronted with the shock of the unfamiliar, dominated by peatiness. The nose reminds of an old steam engine, road tar and burned rubber. Rotting seaweed, iodine and mineral notes combine with chimney smoke, TCP and a cold ashtray. Flavorwise, an overwhelming phenolic blast subdues the underlying sweetness. Crisp oak and salty dryness characterize the peaty finish. Whether you love it or hate it, you certainly won't forget it!
