A sherried Laphroaig 16 bottled for 2014 whisky festival in Germany; sherried Laphs are most of the time quite good. Overall a very enjoyable dram, a remarkable 16yo and a very good sherried smoky dram. Definitely one of the most impressive under 20yo whisky that I’ve drank, especially considering that it’s a 1998 and not one of those old school 1970s or even 1980s

A legendary bottle from Laphroaig and one that, despite the 43% ABV, still manage to impress me everytime I drink it. Definitely one of the better OB Laphroaigs although a higher ABV would have probably boosted this towards a must-have bottle
