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 something extremely medicinal and thought i could hardly sniff it, if all i read about it was right. And how was i surprised when i sniffed this warm and delicate smoke, how was i surprised when i tasted this delicious and delicate liquor with just a drop of water. The second time i opened the bottle,several weeks later, peat seemed even naturally tamed, nose revealed more sherry, not a complex clean and long sherried presence (and taste) as Ardbeg's, but something affordable and confident,as if Laphroaig was already an old connaissance, even if it was only the second time we met each other. This whisky is like the old worn Barbour jacket in our wardrobe. It has the elegance of a classic that'll never let you down. Today, Laphroaig 18 years has to be in my wish list.
