Laphroaig “LORE” SINGLE MALT WHISKY-48%

Since 1815 each Laphroaig distillery manager has been the custodian of the craft to make the richest single malt in the world. Over the years each has passed on their skills and traditions to the next generation to continue this legacy. Distillery manager John Campbell has created Lore, a rich, peaty Laphroaig like no other.

Cask make up: A complex marriage of rare whiskies, matured in batches, in five unique casks: first fill ex-bourbon casks, virgin European oak hogsheads, ex-Laphroaig casks, American oak refill quarter casks and second fill Oloroso sherry hogsheads.
Appearance: Deep mahogany
Nose: Rich and smoky with seaside minerals, a hint of ash and bitter chocolate. Vanilla follows with oily unroasted chestnuts and hint of fudge with a malty sweetness. A drop of water adds a clotted cream note with citrus fruit
Palate: Richly peaty with a spicy chilli bite
Finish: Short dry finish and a long sweet aftertaste
