Laphroaig Review
Laphroaig is one of my favourite malts. I'm a fan of the Islay malts and I love singles with plenty of individuality. I understand why some find the flavour unpleasant with its medicinal characteristics and seaweedy nose but, for me, it feels invigorating and inspiring. People love it or hate it a little like Marmite so try before you buy but do please try.
The founder of the distillery (Johnston) died when falling into a vat of partially made whisky.
If you return your bottle top to the distillery they will register 1 square meter of the island of Islay in your name.
If you are one of those who finds Laphroaig reminiscent of mouthwash, bear in mind it's actually slightly mellower and sweeter than it used to be!

Somewhat akin to drinking from the wrong beaker during chemistry practicals. Those who enjoy the phenolic iodine of Laphroaig probably holiday in live volcanoes and eagerly anticipate dental surgery. Despite this, it is a great example to those who claim 'all whiskies taste the same to me'. When the spluttering and swearing stops they know they haven't been drinking Bells. Marvellous. | ||||

A beautiful malt. Laphroaig is one of the finest Islay malts, and surely one of the true greats. Complex and distinctive, it delights you with its individual charm. Rather than creating a dentists chair in your front room, I believe it takes your front room to the opeating theatre. Surely that can't be bad! | ||||
