Суммаризация отзывов
Laphroaig Cask Strength описывают как мощный, дымный и торфяной виски с йодом, солью, смолой и долгим финишем; большинство отзывов положительные, но есть и критические замечания о несбалансированности, «закрытом» носе и непостоянстве партий.
развернуть подробно
В отзывах этот виски чаще всего предстаёт как мощный, дымный и «медицинский» представитель Islay: угольный дым, BBQ, йод, бинты, смола, дёготь, костёр, морская соль, торф, иногда цитрус, зелёное яблоко, лайм, а также маслянистая текстура и долгий финиш. Многие считают его эталонным Laphroaig и высоко оценивают баланс, комплексность, интенсивность, «олдскульный» характер и соотношение цены и качества; часть отмечает хорошую переносимость высокой крепости, а некоторые говорят, что с водой или воздухом вкус становится более сладким и сбалансированным, хотя есть и те, кто предпочитает пить без воды. В поздних отзывах добавляются ноты карамели, ванили, мёда, орехов, ментола, пряности чили и дуба, а качество розлива оценивают как шаг вперёд по сравнению со стандартным 10-летним и даже чуть лучше Batch 8; при цене около 60–70 € покупку называют безусловно оправданной, а при цене около 150 € рост существенный, но всё равно стоящий своих денег.
При этом встречаются заметные критические и противоречивые мнения: несбалансированность из-за алкоголя, «закрытый» нос, ожидание большего, «очень плоский» по сравнению с другими партиями, «один из худших Laphroaig», непостоянство аромата и отсутствие «магии» даже к концу бутылки. Есть сравнения партий между собой, причём отдельные отзывы сомневаются в партиях и влиянии смены владельцев, а один прямо утверждает, что старые партии не обязательно лучше новых.

What kind of stuff! The best Laphroaig 10y CS for years. A pretty complete malt who has everything one would expect from a dram and loves Laphroaig. Again, one thinks again to feel sherry casks, even if it is known only Bourbon barrels. By the way, with the Laphroaig Warehouse Tasting, they also had two completely identical ex-bourbon barrels (same batch, same origin, directly next to one another in the warehouse), which had matured completely differently. The second of them also tasted of sherry, or it is just these barrels that suggest a sherry casks. Great barrel selection! Anyway, at the Laphroaig Bowling tournament a few days ago, he was cutting everything else off, and there was also a Cairdaes from 2008 or 2009.
I would take this whisky to a desert island! A small sip and the taste will last forever!

My first 10yo cask strength. Fabulous! Nose; Sweetie Peaty, light iodine, sweet maltyness. Palate; Thick viscous, full body peat, malty-sweetness, with sweet smoke, and salty with sherry sweatiness and spice. Finish; Medium-long sherry and vanilla with no bitterness. Yummy! This is lovely stuff! Me want more.

A little shy on the nose for a Laphroaig 10 CS, aside from that very capable and satisfying. A really good distillate without flaws and some competent cask maturation/blending going on here, especially the balance stands out, it's really rounded and has substantial depth with a firm and big body, again the cask strength presentation saves some serious points for this. In recent years, Laphroaig tends to gain a more 'green/leafy', as well as a 'fumy/clovy' character to me, with the smoky/medicinal/coastal characteristics being subdued, and I'm not very fond of that I'm afraid. Nonetheless, this is still really good whisky! Tasted H2H with batch 11 in our local whisky club, this wins by a mile!
I can't put it another way. This is a really fantastic Laphroaig. That's how I want my Laphy. Today's bottlings are said to have too much “beam suntory” influence. These casks are from the time before the takeover. Maybe there is really something to it. Full review (german): https://keinehalbendrinks.de/2020/11/03/laphroaig-der-juengere/

Phew, at the beginning in the nose already very violent phenolic. More than batch 006-008 in my view, even though I could not make a direct comparison here. The sweetness is also in batch 009 but not so pronounced I think. All in all, a very delicious malt, the 10 CS does not disappoint with batch 009 - 90 points from me!

I do not say smoke anymore
I compare with Lafroyge on barrel turns (53.1 alc, 7 years) aged in bourbon barrels. The color is darker, sherry. The fragrance is typical Lafroygivsky, for whom the base 10 is too watery, this release should be suitable. Although at high speeds, but this release is softer, easy to drink, smooth smooth aftertaste.

The nose is complex. Neat is better - the strength combined with peat work well for my rhinitis but it lets other aromas to be smelled also. The color is more towards gold - it looks like there is some influence of Sherry casks but not too much. |

Neat it tastes nice but peat is a bit overwhelming. I've reduced it somewhere around 50% and the flavors have more room now to express. Keep it longer in the mouth and you could get mistaken for an older Lafy, (maybe the 2017 CS 25 YO sherry edition) with ashes, medicinal smoke and some salt spreaded over the meat but there is also sweetness and spices and herbs in the end. |

This bottling will be forever linked to the huge existential crisis that shook the whisky scene when the Laphroaig shop was suddenly unavailable for a few weeks. Will this mystery dram ever be released or is it just a story we invented? *Jonathan Frakes voice off* If Laphroaig would only put out one official annual release, it should be this one. Put all these new NAS bullcrap bottlings to the side and savour this juice. This is the real deal. Kudos to John Campell for keeping it real with these batches year after year. Modern style Laphroaig as it should be. Nothing more, nothing less. Thanks Thomas for the Sample.
Another very nice Laphroaig 10 CS version. This one is so far the best of all batches for my taste. Got a lot in common with batch 007. Even better than batch 003 and the red stripe. Hard to compare the green stripe with this new batches. These days there comes a sweet beefy sherry touch with the CS. Back in the green days the balance between TCP and sweetness was kind of elaborated (not in a good or bad way). Something has changed but not for the worse. The Laphroaig 10 CS versions are still a bang for the buck. Amazing batch! Concerning price/performance ratio: 10/10
Saulecker. 10CS = THE Laphroaig. Even at times, when that was still a standard bottling. So if you are so happy to get one, to use his birthday discount, enough to order, so that the shipping is worth ... Cheers!
I was expecting more. The 003 was better, in my estimation. Granted, my bottle of the 009 is freshly opened. Fun things might still happen to the spirit. I'm too tired to write tasting notes tonight. I wrote more than 100 published reviews over the past 365 days.

This is incredible. The epitome of Islay whisky. Deep, intense smoky flavours with a surprising subtlety, sophistication and nuance. I've tried many scotch whiskies from all over Scotland, all different styles and ages up to 35yrs, and this could arguably be the best of them all. The limited edition laphroaig 30 was a very memorable one with its delicate fruity aromas and flavours, but this here is quintessential Islay. It embodies all of the descriptors that Islay whiskies can conjure and more. Upon opening an amazing minty freshness can be smelt, which is also evident straight away on the palate. Beautiful tobacco note, iodine, antiseptic, bandages, then wonderful industrial and maritime mineral notes followed by more vegetal and oily/fishy maritime notes, all the while a delicate young fresh fruitiness peeks through led by grapefruit. What a wonderful creation this is. This is what I've been waiting to taste, a bold unapologetic natural expression of young Laphroaig, after seeing the immense unfulfilled potential in the regular 10 year old Laphroaig.

Color is gold. Aroma: Open, powerful. First aid kit - iodine, bandages, ointment. Smoke, smoke, smoke ... Clothes smelling like a fire, extinguished coals, ash, singed rubber. And this smoky extravaganza is in perfect harmony with the smell of green apples, lime and spicy spices, which for objective reasons only got the background. Taste: Intense, not too sweet. Relays all the delights of the scent. There is smoke, and charcoal-baked potatoes, and a slightly charred steak. There is also something flour, something with bran, maybe a piece of "Borodinsky" ... ••••••••••••••••••• Finish: Long, with a malt bitterness. All the same smoky medical tones. Conclusion: Young Ailovsky dragon. Power, assertiveness, audacity. Class!

Boooom.. What a bomb! Have you ever drunk excellent kerosene? Have you ever tasted the splendid taste of petrol? A huge laphroaig, in no uncertain terms, extreme and representative of the character of the distillery. Peat, smoke, grass, plastic, hydrocarbons, with a bitter dark chocolate aftertaste ... More herbaceous and vegetables by adding water.. maybe those who do not love Islay will find it extreme but laphroaig is like that, either you love it or you hate it, and I undoubtedly choose the first one

Best cask strength version in years! Just everything you need as an Laphroaigoist. Intensity, smoke, power, but also subtle fruitiness beyond the usual harsh peat attack. Medicinal, savoury, and long-lasting (at least in the mouth), kudos to John Campbell & Co.!

Another good Laphroaig CS, but perhaps not the best in the series? I remember batch #003 (88 pts.) being more fulfilling and bourbon-y, and batch #011 (88) I have open right now is more complex, if also more challenging due to its bitter, ashy tail. [edit] Some months later I'm nearly at the end of the bottle, and I still can't quite find the magic here. It's nice, but I don't think I'll need another bottle.
I think there is no point in pondering which of the batches is better or worse. I think each stands for itself as an independent whisky that needs no comparison.

Uiiiii inhaled too deeply - alcohol that comes across almost a bit too aggressive. A few drops of water won't do any harm. Then comes the typical Laphroaig DNA: smoke, hospital / disinfectant, furniture polish - just a bit more intense. The smoke in connection with something metallic reminds me of a steam locomotive shed and the smell of my old Merklin locomotive on the first trip after a long break. In the corner is an old roll of tar paper in the warm sun. Later I take the empty glass and smell it again. A smoked mackerel suddenly flashes. Then the smell of opening an extinguished stove. The nose is really super awesome. . |

Strong, powerful finish with alcoholic and bitter notes. It reverberates for a long time, slightly astringent. Conclusion: a “must have” and an Islay rocker who cannot be pushed off the throne. If it is too strong, you are too weak. > ;-) |
Now this is what I want from my Laphroaig. This is the kind of stuff I fell in love with all those years ago. Soot, tar, bonfire, hemp ropes, peat, sea-spray, seaweed - this immediately takes me back to a fishing port. In the taste we get the modern Laphroaig sweetness, malt, sugar, honey and vanilla; but it quickly gives way to hospital gauze, smoked fish, iodine, spices and soot. The finish is long, with some sweet apples, but mostly again smoke, seabreeze, bonfire on the beach and some wood. Amazing stuff.

Had an H2H lineup of various Laphroaig cask strength releases from old to modern. Very flat compared to other batches
[July, 2017] All of the recent NAS (remember: Never Accept Stupid marketing) editions of Laphroaig were rather weakish (immature, unbalanced) including the Cairdeas 2017. So I am really curious if they at least managed to keep the high quality of this 10 year old cask stength. There is hope - as it was distilled BEFORE the Beam Global management took over responsibility for Laphroaig in 2011 and subsequently pushed both equipment and employees to maximise output (by implementing resp. bonus schemes). Every expert in the industry knows what happens when you just go for volumes... Another good batch of the 10CS but we will see if the quality stays that high once the Beam Global vintages have to be used (2021 onwards). I light a candle for that...

The colour is burnished and quite dark - as usual they added some sherry casks (according to official statements all Laphroaig matures in bourbon casks only ;-) and that is why we all love the 10 year old cask strength! The texture shows a few slow legs and many late fat and sticky tears. This promises a great malt! The nose is extremely phenolic and medical with a range from cold bonfire ashes to emergency room rubbish bin. Some strong wooden aromas too (did they fill virgin oak casks in 2006 already?). Nice nose, just the heavy woods drive it a little bit out of balance... |
| Вкус |
89 |
The taste is honey-sweet and multi-layered (here the sherry casks do a great job again in multiplying the flavours range) all around a maritime peaty, medical and spicy profile. A fair share of water makes the nose even more phenolic and ashy (I like it better when neat) and smoothes both the taste and finish. They get much more sweeter and balanced - now it is dangerously quaffable... So nose it neat and reduce it for drinking. |

The initial mouthfeel is hot (58,1% abv) and instantly coats the whole mouth (as the texture promised). Some minor astringent moments from the tannins but this is rather welcomed as it keeps the other strong flavours somewhat contained. The finish is very long as usual and attacks the taste buds in different waves. But it is a little drying too (cold ashes, metallic) that is not unpleasant after all. |
(Blind PWC of 21/10/17) One of the worst Laphroaig I had the opportunity to taste. Very far from the old Batchs. I am very disappointed with this whisky.

First something takes time in the glass. Then off we go ... Relatively soft start with a lot of greasy peat smoke. At first this is very dominant. Over time, the smoke settles a little and other flavors come through well. Caramel, vanilla, barbecue sauce, plus nice, slightly sour limes, grapefruit. Everything surrounded by a great maritime touch. Seaweed, salt, hospital style, some ash and a campfire. The smoke is changing to more and more styles. In the background some nuts and a cooling menthol / mint note. Very good. |

Round, harmonious transition from the nose to the palate. Oily, almost creamy. Chilli heat tingles in the mouth. Smoke, ashes, are also here first. Then slightly fruity like apples, bananas and the subtle tart touch is also there. In addition, nice vanilla sweetness, honey sweetness with a slightly greasy, meaty note. The fruit and the sweetness slow down the sharp start. There is also some oak spice. Really great! |

COLOR: Gold (without dye) - also an absolute top bottling in cask strength, - fully complies with its entitlement as a special edition and lives up to expectations - another qualitatively significant leap to the standard 10 years => a completely different league! - insanely complex and delicious - compared to Batch 8 from 2016 I find it a bit better - for the actual price of about 60€ - 70€ unconditional Price recommendation, now at around €150 a significant increase but well worth the money
