Laphroaig 15 Year Old 2004 - The Octave

DESCRIPTION

Colour: Old gold. 
Nose: Smoked pears with some damp earth. Restrained smoke, quite vegetal. Sultanas and fresh grilled figs. 
Palate: More definite sherry notes than on the nose. Quite dry and grassy, but also fairly “fat”. Smoky walnuts and preserved lemons in salt. 
Finish: Great length, oily, and the smoke fades to a rounded sweetness, with some seawater in with the sugars.
