LAPHROAIG-10 Years Old Cask Strength Batch 17 New Design 58.3% 700ml

Tasting notes：

Nose:  Unlike usual, it doesn't jump into your face like peat shortly after pouring, doesn't wave around strips of Hansaplast like a fool, and doesn't have the guys from K & B Construction in tow, who are just laying the last few meters of asphalt before it's time for a well-earned evening with 6-packs and a BBQ. A little patience, thank you. Yes, please, but it really hasn't taken that much patience to get to the point of "Ahh, Laphroaig" exclamation.Now seaweed and sweet peat smoke, which can barely cover the smoked apricot pieces. Canned pineapple, served with a little sea salt and black pepper - what a fruit. Even the first sip does not change the comparatively light and fruity nose.

Palate: Yes, that's right, there's a lot to catch up on. The creamy start is almost soft, but there's no shortage of peat smoke, nor of fresh asphalt, seaweed, salt and that feeling you'd probably get if you bit into used plasters and bandages. Still very fruity, though, with dried and smoked apricot pieces, peach slices, pineapple and lemon peel. Slightly ashy mouthfeel, nothing remains of the initial creaminess, it gets dry relatively quickly and then quite spicy.

Finish: Medium-long, dry, quite spicy and peaty - the bee stings from behind. What it lacks in the nose is delivered quite clearly in the finish. Here it shows what you would expect from a 10 CS.
