Lp8 Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky – Elements Of Islay (500ml) Volume: 500ml          ABV: 53.5%          Age: No Age Statement         Country: Scotland The Elements of Islay are a range of iconic, small-batch, expertly sourced independently bottled whiskies. The Limited Edition range consists of single malt bottlings from individual Islay distilleries identified with periodic symbols and batch numbers (Lp1, Ar2, and so on). They are bottled either as single casks or as small batches between 3 and 20 carefully selected casks. These expressions the distilleries’ individual character while presenting a balanced and characterful whisky bottled at full proof. This 8th Elements of Islay bottling is a marriage of three ex-Madeira wine casks from 1998. Lp8 promises a beautifully sweet and smoky Laphroaig, giving a slightly softer edge to what is known as the typically medicinal Islay whisky. Tasting Notes Nose: Brine and freshly laid tar are followed by prunes and dates. Classic medicinal notes of TCP mix with blood orange. Palate: A cloak of dense, dark fruit and sooty smoke is draped over zesty grapefruit and dry spices. Cardamon and nutmeg mix with dark chocolate-filled lime boiled sweets. Finish: More classic medicinal notes, with smoke and salt-encrusted mackerel skins to follow.. For adults of legal drinking age. Please drink responsibly.
