Laphroaig 18 Year Old, Hogshead Cask, Cask #8370, 1997, Signatory Vintage, 51.2%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

84 / 100

The smoke and medicinal Islay character make the style easy to place. Intense peat carries through to a long, smoky finish. That focused character is appealing, though clearly aimed at people who want peat up front.
