Laphroaig 27 Year Old Directors Special

A super impressive 27 year old single malt Laphroaig, released as part of the Director’s Special series from The Single Malts of Scotland range by Elixir Distillers. This well aged Islay whisky was matured in a first-fill bourbon barrel with only 210 bottles being filled. Classic sweet and salty nature with wonderfully phenolic smoke typical of this whisky.

Nose

Chargrilled mango skins and toasted banana with waves of dusty coal smoke explode out of the glass. A wonderful rich heady note of melted dark chocolate builds with just a hint of fresh mint leaves giving an indication of age.

Palate

An initial tropical sweetness plays on the tongue with flavours of passion fruit and baked mango which are complimented by a dusty, dark smoke and notes of cola and ginger. The peat evolves into rich tobacco and cherry jam.

Finish

Flavours of dried passion fruit and lime linger and develop with the sooty smoke softening while eucalyptus and mint remain.
