“Good Laphroaig at 50% by Douglas Laing with notes of dark chocolate and macadamia between a sea peat symphony.”

Distilled in Laphroaig in November 1990, aged in refill hogshead for 16 years and bottled in December 2006 for Douglas Laing's Old Malt Cask range. A release of 295 bottles.

This dram has a gold-like color.

Palate (90): powerful, oily. peat, salt, citrus, floral, honey, spices, pepper, dark chocolate, macadamia.
