bobdea Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 laphroaig cask strength is seriously the best islay for under $70 I've ever come across OMG this **** is unreal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Does it have the same general flavour as regular Laphroig, ie kinda medicinal? I prefer Lagavulin or Talisker myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdea Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 yes, it's intense with the peat, intense with everything really I really like lagavulin as well but that one is more tame compared to this stiff. I like that iodine type taste it has, some don't though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekdut Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Laguvulin finally came back in stock locally here, and I bought their whole stock (well only 3 bottles). Sooo nice. I've been a Laphroag (10 and 15) drinker so far, but will look for cask strength. You're not the only one who's mentioned how nice it is.

bobdea Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 $65 US is the top tier for me as far as what I will spend on a single bottle, this cask strength is probably the best value if you want intense flavor. I have been told there's a lagavulin at cask strength great but I've never seen it anywhere, I hear it's pretty much as good as a islay will get. I'd love to try it but I have yet to find it anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Lagavulin cask strength is pretty sick. A bit more expensive though, around 90 from what I remember. Some seriously dank shlt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
