Product Details:
Thompson Bros blended malt of a 15 year old Williamson (LP) has spent 2 years in a Malaga Cask, bringing the traditions of Andalucia and Islay together in one glass.
Cask Type: Refill Butt and 2 years in a Malaga Cask
Distilled:2010
Limited: 342 Bottles
Tasting Notes:
Nose: ‘Generic’ tarry Islay fishing ropes, but tarred with walnut oil, maple syrup, speculoos and sprinkled with black sesame seeds! Buckets of muscavado, crushed walnuts, arbroath smokies, sugared almonds, date & miso syrup – perhaps a touch of Maggi sauce!
Palate: Hash resin! Over stewed and cold breakfast tea, date and ginger puree, dark miso paste, a hint of (salty) dark soy sauce – The proper stuff! Quintessential Laphroaig notes combine beautifully with an excellent cask, giving balanced sweetness to the tarry heavy smoke.
Finish: Quite punchy, with argon oil, cloves, mace, crushed capers (briney). It lingers and becomes drier with time.
