Laphroaig Lp6 Elements of Islay Review

Hello again,

Last year, Lp⁵ was the best whisky at the show. So, high expectations. Although, I think that was Sherry and this is Bourbon.

A series of short reviews from Bristol Whisky Lounge 2016. 13/20

Lp⁶ 51.3%

Colour: Gold

Body: Full

Nose: Classic older Bourbon Laphroaig. Very fruity, mango, pineapple, cinnamon, ginger. Very little smoke.

Taste: Soft arrival, fruit, mango, building spice and smoke.

Finish: Long length. Medicinal and mineral- Flint and bandages.

Notes: Very different to Lp5. That was very maritime. This is very reminiscent of the fully matured quarter cask I had at the distillery.

79/100
