Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы описывают Laphroaig 34-year-old как сложный, мягкий и хорошо сбалансированный виски с заметным влиянием хересных бочек, тропическими и сухофруктовыми нотами, интегрированным дымом и долгим финишем. При этом часть отзывов отмечает недостаток тела или выразительности, а также доминирование древесных и горьких нот.
развернуть подробно
В большинстве текстовых отзывов этот виски описывается как очень удачный и сложный. Отмечается, что дым здесь не «взрывной», а хорошо интегрированный и уступивший место другим ароматам с возрастом. Нос часто описывают как интенсивный и многогранный: сухофрукты (изюм, курага, финики, чернослив), тропические фрукты (манго, маракуйя, гуава, банан, персик), хересные ноты, табак, кожа, старая мебель, ваниль, мёд, специи, а также морские, йодистые и лекарственные оттенки. Во вкусе упоминаются мягкость, маслянистость, сливочность, фруктовость, херес, дым, дуб, кофе, шоколад, апельсин, специи и хорошо скрытый алкоголь. Финиш в большинстве отзывов называют долгим или очень долгим, с дымом, солью, пеплом, сухофруктами, дубом, табаком и шоколадом.
Вместе с тем есть и критические замечания: несколько отзывов указывают на нехватку тела или выразительности, на то, что нос обещает больше, чем вкус, а также на избыточное влияние дуба, горькие и сухие ноты в послевкусии. Некоторые считают, что виски недостаёт крепости бочковой, а цена не соответствует ожиданиям. Часть отзывов отмечает, что в слепой дегустации его сложно узнать как Laphroaig из-за трансформации дыма. В целом тексты сходятся в том, что это качественный и комплексный виски с сильным влиянием хереса, но восприятие его тела, дуба и финиша различается.

gorgeous whisky with the nose outshining the palate and finish. the peat level is still higher than the famed 60s/70s, but its well integrated and not like the majority of the powerful peat bombs most are putting out these days (im sure age has something to do with that).
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 93 | Tropical fruits (mango, dried mango), tobacco, smoked apple, clotted cream on a biscuit. honeydew, salty maritime spray, iodine, gentle sweeter peat. Sugared cranberries |
| Вкус | 91 | palate is definitely a little punchier than the nose in terms of peat, typical iodine, salt, ash, more black currant and dark fruits than tropical (but the tropical notes show up towards mid palate/end although very minor). A little teriyaki glazed meat that is fatty |
| Финиш | 90 | Finish is smokey, drying, medicinal and some grilled peaches with a touch of grilled pineapple. Familiar medicinal notes linger. Never too drying but the oak is there. |

A beautiful old Laphroaig with fantastic fruit notes and a very fine peat note. I don't miss the missing phenolic note, nor the seaweed, nor the warm tar paper.
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 94 | The Oloroso barrels come through very well from the start, delivering raisins, dried figs and apricots, a hint of grated nutmeg and pepper. Only then do I notice the smoky note that is definitely present, which appears briefly here and there, but then disappears again behind the scenes. A bit of smoked bacon, now also fresh apricots and peaches. Fascinating how the nose moves away from aromas from Oloroso barrels to aromas from Bourbon barrels. An extreme nose flatterer, now also a little banana, honey, vanilla pod. |
| Вкус | 93 | A very fruity start with mango, passion fruit, guava, banana and peach. The woody note, which is also present from the beginning, means that you don't immediately think of a fruit salad - but the fruits that slide onto the tongue are definitely tropical. Smoke is only very distant and basically in the form of a wood aroma camouflage. The fruity notes bring a certain sweetness to the tongue, and mild spice notes have a cushioning effect. Caramel candy, milk coffee, fudge. Over time, and especially towards the end, a dry mouthfeel develops without the other aromas disappearing. |
| Финиш | 93 | Long to very long, now completely dry, but the lovely fruity notes are still present in the background, albeit in a slightly weaker form. I should really call it a day with whisky. It still hangs on the tongue and under the palate for so long that there will certainly still be some left in two or three hours, provided no other aromas interfere. |

The wonderful nose is unfortunately not confirmed and falls off chronologically. Still, not a bad Laphroaig; the influence of the Oloroso casks is noticeable and complements the Laphroaig well. Personally, I find it lacks a bit of expressiveness to ascend to the ranks of a top whisky. - 10.05.2025

| Нос | 90 | The influence of the sherry casks is clear, fruity, apricot, raisin, nutmeg, smoke comes through only now and then, smoked ham, chocolate, cherry, honey, the fruit clearly dominates here |
| Вкус | 89 | Very sweet, smoky-tart, intense woody note, fruity in the form of jam, especially apricot, very oily and creamy |
| Финиш | 88 | Long, creamy, lots of wood notes, sticky jam mixed with smoke, oak |

Unfortunately disappointing. The nose promises a worthy bottling, in the mouth it cannot keep up. Somehow too thin and short finish, the sherry also seems artificial. Definitely not bad, but at the price I expect fireworks, which were more likely to happen with book 1 and 2 ...

Laphroaig 1987–2021, 34 years, 46.2%. The Ian Hunter Story, Book 4. Matured in bourbon casks, further aged in oloroso sherry casks. Nose: Wax and polish come to mind first, but also worn leather, almonds, and walnuts. Added to that are the sweetness of dates and the medicinal aromas of old iodine ointment. I also detect antique furniture, tobacco, damp cotton, and linen. Palate: Pipe tobacco and raisins, but also dried apples and soy sauce. Plus various teas, a touch of sea salt and dates, a few ripe plums, and iodine. Finish: Medium-long, with a little more peat smoke, but also some grilled aromas with a sweet marinade. Conclusion: A beautiful Laphroaig, which is at least complex on the nose. Otherwise, it simply lacks that certain something to compete with the 30-year-old from 2024 or the 32-year-old Oloroso from 2015. 88/100 points (2025)

Had the opportunity to try that at a tasting last night. It's a very interesting expression that for once has no color added and still 46+% of alcohol after all these years. I must say in a blind tasting I would have had issues to identify it as a Laphroaig expression. The years have transformed the smoke into more subtle complex notes, hiding the distillery characte. It's very nice, don't get me wrong but I expected something different. The nose is pleasant with taken back smoke and sherry notes, herbal and leathery notes, the taste is very complex and a drop of water opens up a kaleidoscope of flavors. the finish is long and rich.

Beautiful long streaks run down the glass, a hearty sight to behold. Nose: Typical Laphi smoke came out of the sample bottle at first, I wouldn't have expected the age. In the glass then completely different. Slightly sweet hints of smoke appear from time to time, but always recede into the background. Oak and tobacco but also the sweetness of vanilla can be felt, the aromas alternate elegantly. Taste: A gentleman. The 46% suits him well. Velvety and oily, he seizes the mouth. There it is again, the sweet vanilla. The oak settles on the tongue and brings with it a light, pleasant bitterness. Splendid. finish: loooong. Individual aromas gradually disappear and the last smoke sticks to the tongue, here it is again the Laphi smoke, albeit very subtle. A really wonderful malt that invites you to deal with it forever. Unfortunately for me the price is beyond good and evil.

My first contact with this bottling was a Laphroaig MasterClass tasting in December 2022 in Cologne. Now I'm happy to have the opportunity to do the bottling again at home and in peace. The nose impressed me the most with this bottling. The first half hour flew by before I got the idea to take my first sip. The palate was - without a doubt - also impressive in terms of the abundance of aromas, but I would have really wished for a somewhat more voluminous body. The finish is long and extremely pleasant.
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 93 | Extremely intense and full-bodied on the nose. Fortunately, there is also a good portion of smoke, which fits in very nicely between the dried fruit, tobacco and leather notes, and also alongside the strong oak spice. The alcohol is practically imperceptible. Vanilla, pipe tobacco, old leather, dried apricots and dates, pickled plums, grilled pineapple, distant campfire smoke by the sea, iodine, salt flowers, minerals, passion fruit syrup, caramel, sun-ripened figs, dried orange slices, classic kitchen herb mix, ripe banana, milk chocolate and very diverse oak spice , which contributes to a soothing tingling sensation when you hold your nose in the glass as deeply as possible. |
| Вкус | 90 | Sparkling start. Creamy mouthfeel. The flow of saliva is only gently stimulated. Vanilla, oak, campfire smoke, grilled pineapple, pickled cherries, turnip greens, a pinch of ash, iodine, mango wine gum, dried orange slices, leather, liquorice, elderberry syrup, forest floor in the coniferous forest, cassis, malt, oak spice that does not drift into bitterness. |
| Финиш | 91 | long finish Campfire smoke, ash, salt, caramel, dried pineapple, vanilla, pickled cherries, dark chocolate, iodine, dried mango pieces, a hint of liquorice, oak spice, tobacco, leather. |

It has a relatively oily viscosity and its bouquet is relatively intense. I have aromas of pleasant maritime peat smoke, vanilla, pipe tobacco, dried fruit, spicy oak, citrus, refreshing mint, creme brulee and herbal honey. deep and complex. Relatively dry in taste. The alcohol is very well integrated and it has a heavy body.

Tried it on the booth in Milan at the festival in December 2022. Started the festival with this release. Distinct warm tones of sherry: prunes, spices in the form of cinnamon and cloves, smoke comes through them. I must say that the influence of wood (oak) seemed excessive to me, and in the taste sweet tones quickly disappear and are replaced by bitterness.

What a delicate Laphroaig. Fully aged peat becomes so soft that it bines sherry cask and bourbon cask. Medicinal, tobacco, a little bit salty, oaky spice, dried fruits and tropical fruits, and coffee. A bottle to keep.

| Нос | 90 | Upon picking up the glass, you'll immediately notice its distinctive profile. The aromas of apple peels, aged wood, barnyard, pumpkin, and hints of pine needles dominate. As time passes, the apples transition into a browned state, accompanied by the presence of haw flakes. While the initial nosing might feel lacking in strength and depth to fully support the complex nature of the whisky, it does improve slightly after allowing it to breathe in the glass, revealing additional notes of nectar and apple danish. |
| Вкус | 91 | Red dates, red delicious apples, dark plums, kelps, and a touch of cherries. The dark fruitiness is straightforward without excessive acidity from the peels. With some chewing, peatiness emerges, reminiscent of smoke arising from damp burnt wood, dry mushrooms and burnt vanilla sticks, while still maintaining the fruity freshness. The transformation is delightful. |
| Финиш | 91 | The finish leaves impressions of damp burnt wood, haw flakes, dried red dates, seashells grilled over a fire, and a complex blend of cardboard paper, hummus, pomegranate, whampee and seirogan. Long-lasting incense and lingering butter cookies. |

| Нос | 93 | Old furniture, centuries-old villa, leather, cake, liquor, the smoke has almost completely - as expected - transformed into other aromas. Wonderful. |
| Вкус | 94 | Luckily, the sherry finish didn't harm the Laphi, instead embedding it in a bouquet of other fine nuances: the dram lies soft, oily, velvety on the tongue, no trace of alcohol, perfectly integrated. Marzipan, a hint of dark berries in maritime aromas, liqueur, Black Forest cake. Far away from the young smoke bombs, more intense than, for example, the 28J, really, really great malt! |
| Финиш | 94 | Long, the aromas only fade after a while, absolutely great. It's a pity that the price is in four figures, otherwise a few bottles would end up in the cellar :) |
