Is this one of those threads where people brag about how they only drink beer made from hops harvested from the southern base of Mt. Everest and brewed with unicorn tears and rainbow juice?
don't think i have seen laphroaig. will have to look and see if its around and try it then.
It's the kind of whiskey which taste you cannot aquire, you either like it or you don't.
You want the 10 year variant, trust me on this, it doesn't get better with age. For some reason this whiskey turns to pisswater if aged.
It's not one of the most expensive original single malts but it is by far the one with the most character.
before spending money on it just dump a tablespoon of liquid smoke into a shot of vodka. if you don't gag, you might like laphroaig.
. It's not smokey AT ALL and anyone who has actually tasted it knows that. To think that the taste comes from burnt wood is retarded at best and exceptionally stupid at worst, take your pick.
Bullshit. It's true the flavor doesn't come from wood, it comes from peat, but to say it isn't smoky leaves me questioning whether or not you've ever had it.
It's not smokey, if you ever had ANY whiskey stored in pure oak then you'd know that.
Same goes for Lagavulin, it's not smokey in the taste either, it's just that you got shit taste.
I've probably drink more Laphroaig than every member of this forum combined, i was raised on it.
Do you even know how whisky is made? :^D
I suggest you quiet down before you embarrass yourself further :^D
Indeed i do know how the Single Malts are made, i've been there and watched the process.
It is NOT the same as how Whiskey is made if that is what you thought.
I suggest you just shut the fuck up on the matter because while you may think you have a clue on this subject, you do not.
For laphroaig the entire process has to do with the way it's stored, that is why it gets LESS flavour over time, not more.
How about you, ever visited the Islay? What year and how much time did you spend reviewing the process?

Or piss in a glass and drink it and you might like any American Beer if you like that.
The comparison is valid, there is nothing correct about yours and nothing correct about mine either.
I assume you're not a fan of Laphroaig but that just means that you are not one of those who like it, nothing more. It's not smokey AT ALL and anyone who has actually tasted it knows that.

Yes, it is one of the most tastful whiskeys you can drink but it is in NO WAY smokey in it's taste.
Besides, it's a lot cheaper than most other whiskeys even though it is THE original single malt.

To each his own. Craft beer is taking the nation by storm, and that is not a bad thing.
