Macbeth Act II - Laphroaig 26 Year Old "Second Witch"

The nose opens with thick charcoal smoke fused with desiccated sea spray, then softened by creamy vanilla and brooding dark fruit—think plums steeped in syrup.
On the palate, bold peat takes centre stage, accompanied by rich dried cherries, tar-black coffee, burnt sugar and a whisper of medicinal iodine. The influence of the sherry cask adds a layer of brooding sweetness that balances the smoke. The finish stretches long and lean: smouldering embers, salted oak, leather and a final wave of lingering peat and dark fruit.
