Brand New, Laphroaig 10 Year Old Cask Strength – Batch 13

BRAND NEW RELEASE – Laphroaig 10 Year Old Cask Strength – Batch 13

Released in the distillery only yesterday and still largely unavailable online, this is Laphroaig’s newest batch of the cask strength 10 year old. The cask strength series has been a popular favourite amongst friends of Laphroaig for over a decade now, and the demand doesn’t seem to be slowing down. A firm favourite at Luxury & Rare HQ due to its genuine depth and flavour. Laphroaig cask strength is barrier filtered, only just to remove small char particles. This means you can enjoy exactly as Laphroaig made it, with very little intervention.

We have been lucky enough to sample last night and it’s won us over. Batch 13 is a reminder and almost a throwback to an earlier cask strength bottlings in the series. We tried it without water first and the peat explosion was followed up by the sweet salty hints of the sea. With a little water added it really opened up the dram to the classic iodine, medicinal and vanilla fudge flavours, there was even a hint of citrus to it. This is absolutely one for the Laphroaig fans out there!
