Consensus is that this is a Laphroaig. Matured in a bourbon barrel for 12 years. Lots of fruit and peat. From the consistently excellent German independent bottler East Village Whisky Company. One of only 116 bottles.
In classic Australian style, this whisky has absolutely rippled flavour out of its cask. However, while I was expecting spiky youth in the spirit and the abv, it drinks with a maturity and ease that belies these facts. I have since bought two bottles. Absolutely delicious and as good, if not better, than it’s Scotch peers
