ABV: 48.6%
A direct import of the 2016 bottling of Laphroaig's natural strength 25 YO, matured in both Oloroso and American oak casks. Jim Murray is in raptures over this declaring it one of the finest examples he's ever experienced. John Hansell of Whisky Advocate adds, "The 30 year old is softer, mellower, drier, and more debonair. The 25 year old is bolder, more youthful, more dynamic, richer, and sweeter -- bottling at cask strength really helps here".
Other reviews.... Quite possibly the finest bottling of Laphroaig I have ever encountered. And over the last 35 years there have been a great many bottles. 96.5 points 48.6% Alc./Vol. - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible
