Laphroaig 1996 SMS Masterpieces Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Big and rich notes of dark sherry, with juicy fruit, sweet tarry notes and dark chocolate.
Palate: More sherry, with raisins, dates and sea-salt chocolate. Tobacco and dark smoke follow.
Finish: Very long. Coffee and cherries fade to rich smoke liquorice.
Distillery Information
The distillery was founded in 1810 by brothers Donald and Alexander Johnston on what was originally a family-run farm in a small bay on the southernmost tip of Islay. Its unique flavour comes in part from its vicinity to the coast and the high moss content of its peat, which is processed in the distillery’s own floor maltings. Laphroaig was owned by members of the Johnston family until 1954. In 1847, co-founder Donald Johnston died in dramatic circumstances - after falling into a scalding kettle of burnt ale. For the next decade Walter Graham, manager of neighbouring distillery Lagavulin, ran the company. Laphroaig returned to Johnston family hands in 1857 when Donald’s son Dugald gained ownership.
