Laphroaig 10 Years Whisky (Canned) - 70cl

Laphroaig is one of the 9 brand-brand whiskies produced on the island of Islay, one of the most peaty and marine, a tough, refined and skilfully sculpted whisky that certainly does not hide behind vanilla scents. On the contrary, its charm is all in the marine and smoky nuances that alternate to create a dark and mysterious fresco: imagine a romantic painting of a beach lit by the cold light of the moon with the wind howling and sweeping the sea.Now, said like that, it sounds a bit gloomy, but Laphroaig quarter cask is a masterpiece in a bottle. It has it all: character, fizz, peppery mouthfeel with impressive mineral development, elegant aromas, body and great balance.On the label you will find the words 'quarter cask': in practice, the ageing does not take place in traditional 250-litre casks, but in smaller 125-litre casks, Tuscan Vin Santo caratello style. And this leads to greater and faster oxygenation, which results in faster maturation with less loss of alcohol. The body remains, the aromatic development happens earlier, very simply.
