Here it is. He says "Cindy and I are breaking up" - then proceeds with the review of Laphroaig 10 Year Single Malt Scotch, which he tells us has been his go-to single malt - it's a "no compromise" Malt, he assures us.

    Laphroaig 10 is currently my favorite. Burnt electric wire that fires up every sense. Love it.

    The Wee Beasty is also very very good. My local shop has a couple of $100+ releases from Laphroaig that seem more trendy than anything else, but I'm still tempted. My wife would probably leave me if she knew I was willing to go into triple digits MSRP for a bottle... which is probably how we ended up with this thread.

    I used to think Laphroaig was the poor man's Lagavulin, but now I don't believe there's a single poor man's thing about the brand.

    joke comments aside, I always go back to it. familiar, comforting, pricey enough to be special, but not crazy enough to feel guilty.

    I love a good single malt, but im not a fan of laphroig. Too peaty.

    Agreed. I love scotch and slightly peaty is ok but Laphroig tastes like somebody put a cigarette out in the bottle before pouring your drink.
