Full and refractive gold in colour. On the nose it's phenolic, seaweedy and very peaty with a hint of sweetness and a lingering and unique finish. To help awaken the bouquet of Laphroaig whisky and bring out the aromatics, add a few drops of water. Hold your glass towards the light and observe how the water swirls in the golden liquid. Nose the glass deeply for a hint of Laphraoig whisky's unique taste. Then sip, allowing the whisky to roll over your tongue. Slainte mhath, Good Health.
