    i LOVE laphroaig ohh its, a must have nothing compares, it goes great with a smoked steak in hickory every time i open a bottle of laphroaig i'm reminded of my last cook out. its so good 50 dollars a bottle, is almost to much but i almost want to stow it away for good times. my boys on this camping trip will get this in there glass only cause i love this spirit so much. wish i could have this every day laphroaig 10 is the best ever.

    I must admit I am a bit envious that Ben had the opportunity to have a drink with John Campbell. What John did for Laphroaig was legendary, and every Laphroaig whisky that came out during his tenure has been excellent. I have great respect for John, and I wish he hadn't left Laphroaig.

      But I wasn't interested in John's tasting notes at the start of each tasting. I wish he would have let Ben taste and just kept quiet until Ben gave us his impressions first. Truth is, I felt that John talked way too much overall.

    I absolutely love how the whiskey companies look out for each other and are almost symbiotic in some cases. I wonder how some whiskeys like Laphroig tasted before they started using ex-bourbon casks for finishing!

    It is not fair. Laphroaig is the best. I have been through many and for my taste the Laproiag 10 is the best whisky on the planet.

    Tell Laphroaig that real whisky is 46% ABV or better, non-chill filtered and natural color.
