Tasting Notes

Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Laphroaig 10 Cask Strength

Country: Scotland

Region: Islay

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 58.3%

Score: 91 Points

Laphroaig is now releasing this in batches with ABV’s that may vary; this is for Batch #2. The nose is charcoal, peat, and smoky with hints of seaweed and smoked salmon. The taste is complex, starting off subtle but building quickly to intense cinnamon and black pepper notes that fade slowly to reveal hints of straw and nuts. The finish is a complex mix of spices, with hints of pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg and a slight tartness with traces of smoked salmon.
