The Laphroaig PX Cask Triple Matured Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 48% is an impressive bottling that combines the unmistakable character of the distillery with an exceptional maturation concept. The distillery relies on a triple cask maturation, consisting of ex-bourbon casks, traditional quarter casks and a final maturation phase in Pedro Ximénez sherry butts. This combination results in a multi-layered structure that harmoniously combines fruity nuances, a fine ginger note and the distinctive smokiness of Laphroaig. The official manufacturer information describes the PX Cask as a whisky that is characterized by patience and balance and impresses with a particularly smooth texture.
The production follows a process handed down over generations: the barley malt is intensively peated before being distilled with water from the nearby Kilbride Stream. The whisky is then matured in American bourbon casks before being transferred to quarter casks, which give it a softer, almost velvety texture. The final finish in PX sherry casks provides a rich, dark sweetness and additional depth. As a result, this Islay single malt combines typical aromas such as peat smoke and seaweed with notes of raisins, raisins and liquorice. Bottled at 48% and presented in a 1-liter bottle, it has a long-lasting combination of smoke, fruit and heavy sherry oak.

(automated translation) Tasting notes:
Color: Antique gold with clear sherry embossing.
Nose: Sweet and smoky, with raisins, raisins and fine liquorice.
Taste: Intense peat smoke, layers of oak and heavy sherry sweetness.
Finish: Long, dry and characterized by strong smoke and dense sherry wood notes.
This whisky harmonizes perfectly with strong dishes such as smoked salmon, spicy meat dishes or intense cheeses, whose aromas are elegantly supported by the peat smoke and heavy sherry maturity. Dark chocolate, fruit cake or desserts with dates and raisins offer a suitable sweet complement that picks up on the fruity notes typical of PX. As a soloist, the Laphroaig PX Cask is particularly suitable for quiet moments of enjoyment, neat or with a splash of water to bring out the marzipan-like and fruity nuances. Its long-lasting structure also makes it an impressive finish to a hearty meal. (automated translation)
authentisch, die 48% kompensiert er, echter Geschmack

Die Reifung im PX- und Quartercask, und natürlich die paar Vol.% mehr verleihen ihm mehr Körper als dem normalen 10-Jährigen. Das macht diesen Whisky jedoch nicht minder rauchig oder gar zum "easy dram". Im Gegenteil, er wirkt dichter und voller als die Standardabfüllung. Für mich eine positive Überraschung und sicherlich eine kräftige Rauchbombe die nichts für zartbesaitate ist.

Nicht so rauchig wie der normale Laphroaig, Sherry-Aroma, süß, trocken, kräftig 48%, ein Spitzenwhisky. Dank der 1l-Flasche kommt man auch etwas länger aus.
