Tasting note

拉弗格這款10年加強桶版，帶著明顯的艾雷海岸風格：深褐色酒液先以濃烈的泥煤煙和海鹽抓住鼻腔，接著是焦糖、香草與燒烤棉花糖的甜感，但口感依然強勁而厚實。桶陳於烘炙過的美國波本桶，帶來煤炭、烤橡木和香辛料的餘韻，同時保留煙燻、碘質與煙草的醫藥感。入口先是溫暖的糖蜜與咖啡巧克力，再被強烈的泥煤和海風味推進，單寧與橡木結構讓尾韻悠長。建議於杯中靜置10–15分鐘或加幾滴水，能讓香氣層次更為開展。生產上以原味為重，僅輕微過濾以去除炭屑，讓你喝到酒廠出品的真實風貌。

A commanding cask-strength expression from Laphroaig, this 10-year-old release delivers the distillery’s signature coastal peat with little intervention. Dark tawny in the glass, the nose opens with intense peat smoke, smoked cedar and Manuka honey alongside pipe tobacco, waxy candle and shoe polish notes. On the palate it’s full-bodied and concentrated: burnt oak staves, barbecued marshmallow, toffee and Belgian caramel waffle weave through briny sea spray, iodine and a touch of white pepper. Matured in American ex-Bourbon barrels that were seasoned and charred, the spirit is lightly barrier-filtered so you taste it as intended—robust oak, vanilla cream, nutmeg and lingering maritime salinity. Best enjoyed with a few drops of water to open the aromatics, or given 10–15 minutes in the glass to relax.

Winery

拉弗格酒廠位於艾雷島南岸，以濃烈泥煤風格著稱。酒廠使用當地泥煤燻乾麥芽、以傳統鍋爐蒸餾，然後入經過燒焦的美國波本桶熟成。這款10年加強桶幾乎不做干預，只做輕微過濾去除炭屑，保留最原始的口感與層次感，風味直接且真實。

Laphroaig Distillery, located on Islay’s south shore, is famed for unapologetically peaty single malts. Traditionally malted barley is smoked over local peat, and the spirit is matured in charred American oak ex-Bourbon barrels. Batch releases are minimally processed—this Cask Strength 10 Year is barrier-filtered only to remove small char particles so the spirit retains maximum texture and flavour.
