Islay peat smoke, tangy salt laden air with an echo of sweetness at the end.
Laphroaig’s house style is a no-holds-barred assault on the senses; peaty, pungent but balanced with subtle sweetness. Remarkable for its use of cold-smoking of peat to give the liquid its iconic flavour. Once tasted, never forgotten.
Smoky French Martini: 25ml Laphroaig 10YO, 25ml Chambord, 50ml Pineapple juice, 10ml Lemon juice. Pour all ingredients into a shaker tin, fill with ice and shake hard for 8 seconds, strain into a chilled coupette and garnish with a fresh bramble.
