ADELPHI 2004 LAPHROAIG SINGLE CASK #700170
Bourbon Cask 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

1 of only 321 bottles from cask 700170

Drawn from a refill ex-Bourbon hogshead, this appears to have had a west coast maturation – gradual loss of alcohol with good retention of volume (win-win). Summer gold in colour, this shows a moderate bead.

Smoked kippers, burning boiler suits (thanks Alison!), Amaretti biscuits, lint bandages soaked in TCP and sea urchin.

Burnt treacle cupcakes, Stollen cake, malt kilns, smoked oysters, sun-kissed kelp and smoked Mull cheddar in a long finish.
