  • Laphroaig Quarter Cask - Like drinking a pirate ship, but be

    I am by no means a connoisseur, so don't expect me to know what I'm talking about, but Laphroiag Quarter Cask is a bottle of burning wood and gunpowder. The reactions of my family when I poured them some… read more

  • Laphroaig Quarter Cask - No Laphing Matter

    Nose: You first notice the peat-imparted leather, which manages to be deliciously inviting combined with a well-rounded sweetness (and NaCl/I2): like wakame salad, complete with sesame seeds. Further … read more

    I am currently finishing my 3rd bottle of this glorious series of Laphroaig distillate. Many before have already explained the origin and defintion behind the "quarter cask" entitlement, which is quite… read more

  • Laphroaig QA cask - toned down, very drinkable

    Quite a funny name to this one, if you’re a software engineer when you hear QA you immediately think about Quality assurance, and not about Quercus Alba (which is what Laphroaig had in mind ok?) . When… read more

  • Laphroaig 25 Year old - Smooth as Silk

    I'm generally a fan of anything Laphroaig and the distillery has never let me down in all these years, though, I've heard of a miscreant 15 year old that may taint an otherwise perfect track record. But… read more

  • Laphroaig 10 Year old - The elegance of classics

    I won't write any tasting notes about such a classic as Laphroaig 10. Most of Connosr members did it much better than i could do. I'll only write my feeling about such a astonishing malt. I was expecting… read more

    Forced to choose a preference among the Big Three Peat Monsters of Islay, those whose cupolas serve sentry duty on the southern shores, I would have to admit to being a proud passenger on the Ardbeg b… read more

    So maximum. You all have tasted Laphroaig, at least one of the big Islay's. Laphroaig 10 has long been my favorite scotch. This stuff is like doubling the intensity of that, then adding little men with… read more

  • Laphroaig PX Cask - Islay Chocolate Cake

    Take a typical Laphroaig (like the 10), pour it over a chocolate rum cake, soak it over night and say 'Hello' to the Laphroaig PX Cask! The nose is quintessential Laphroaig with that familiar seaweed,… read more

  • Laphroaig Quarter Cask - Smoky, peaty, balanced, and smooth

    On the nose, there was a significant smokiness as well as the classic band-aid aroma. In spite of this powerful nose, the drink did not evoke as much of the briney seaside sense of place as one might … read more
