We’ll be honest, Laphroaig (pronounced La-froyg) isn’t for everyone.  It is one of the peatiest single malts out there as it hails from the northern Isle of Islay.  The flavor is best described as standing on the beach on a cold night next to a raging campfire with the briny smell of sea air wafting about. It’s a perfect whiskey to sustain you through a chilly winter (or a foggy summer in San Francisco).  At 10 years in the barrel, many malts haven’t mellowed quite enough, but the Laphroig 10 is superb.  We can’t wait to taste the 15.
