Laphroaig 34 Year Old Ian Hunter Book 4

The fourth installment of the Laphroaig Ian Hunter Story - The Malt Master - tells the story of Laphroaig distillerys in-house floor maltings, established by Ian Hunter himself during his tenure as distillery manager. Hidden within this tome, you will also find a very fine bottle of whisky! This heavily peated spirit from Laphroaig distillery was matured in a combination of American oak ex-Bourbon casks and European oak first-fill Oloroso Sherry casks. Whisky drawn from these casks was skillfully married and the finished expression has a minimum age of 34 years. Official Tasting Notes Nose – Smoky and rich dried fruit, with notes of leaf tobacco, eucalyptus, fresh straw, and sweet notes of golden syrup, cinder toffee, heather honey and crushed black pepper. Palate – Peaty and sweet, barbecued pork with sweet honey marinade together with notes of peach and orange blossom, a touch of iodine and earthy floral notes. Finish – Ashy with wood smoke lingering.
