Book2: The Icon The Ian Hunter Story
The second release in our Ian Hunter Story pays tribute to the Icon that Ian Hunter built more than 100 years ago and honours his understanding that no one thing is more important to the creation of Laphroaig than the place it comes from – Islay and the ‘hollow by the bay’ where Laphroaig® first came into being.
This 2020 release is aged for thirty years in Spanish Oak Oloroso Sherry oak barrels and bottled at a strength of 48.2% abv free from chill-filtration. This whisky is underscored with Laphroaig’s signature characteristic peatiness, making this second book a unique peated single malt whisky journey through history.
Nose First thing you notice is the iodine, classic Laphroaig, and then meaty notes like smoked bacon but with a sweet maple syrup cure, toffee, with spices such as pink peppercorns, chili and liquorice.
Palate Spicy peppery notes with seaweed and that iodine note again, creamy full nutty texture with stone fruit, rose petal and toffee.
Finish Long with nuts and a lemon peel lift.
Overall A rich dark old dram but that Laphroaig Distillery character still dominates after all this time. Tasting Note by the Chaps at Master of Malt
