The quarter cask from Laphroig to me is very dissapointing it just has a lack of taste,the smell was very promising but tasting it i found it too alcoholic and too woody just too sharp.After adding some water it was less sharp but also less tasty.The regular and the 15 yo however i found them much better.Is quarter cask such a overrated whisky or is it just my taste?

I think it's more of an historical footnote than anything else Eric. I tired it out of curiosity and out of interest in comparing old fashioned style whisky with the modern product.
I was underwhelmed too. |

Thats interesting , im a young whisky enthusiast and i find Laphroaig QC fascinating , you get the intensity of laphroaig as if a blanket has been put over it , calmed down certainly.
I find Laphroaig perhaps not usually to my liking including the QC ut i thought that it was certanily anything but dissapointing.

It is a nice whisky but there are more nice whiskies,comparing the qc with other "brews" from Laphroaig i`d say it`s quit average and perhaps therefor a good marketingproduct but not an exiting whisky like other Laphroaig`s.I`m just missing something other bottles do have.By the way have you tasted the new Ardbeg 10 Mor?What is your opinion about that bottle`s contents?
Eric.
