Personally, I hadn't acquired the taste for Laphroaig by the time the old release was discontinued. I'd tried to grab a bottle on the auctions but been priced out, so never got to try it. If it was better, it must have been phenomenal! Did you try both? What do you think?
yeah same - I'm relatively new with whisky as a hobby so maybe 3-4 years so we missed out on a lot of the older releases and that time people still have nostalgia for. Interestingly enough, both me and Jay have been buying some older releases on auctions recently (for me a 2010 aardbeg corryvecken) so we can do some comparison videos try to find out if its nostalgia or was just better whisky being produced back then
Delicious!
This one absolutely is. We're so glad they brought it back. One of the best whiskies of recent times
some say the old release was better.. what are your thoughts?

@@bottlekilltv I haven't the fortune yet, but now I really wanna try this. I'll be keeping my eye out. Cheers.
