Laphroaig 16 Years Old

A 2019 cask strength release of 11,500 bottles, the 16 sits a notch above the flagship in age and strength, its smoke rounded but still vigorous.

Sixteen years in ex-Bourbon at full strength let the oak work without softening the peat into submission.

At 48% the medicinal smoke carries citrus, fresh fruit, a malt note and a mossy edge, the heavily peated malt unmistakable underneath.
