Where the standard Laphroaig 10 Year is bottled at 40% ABV and chill filtered, the Cask Strength edition delivers the same iconic whisky completely undiluted, non chill filtered, and with no added color, preserving every drop of the heavy peat, medicinal iodine, sea spray, and coastal character that has made Laphroaig the best selling Islay single malt in the world. Batch 011 is particularly significant for fans of the brand: it marks the return of the green stripe on the front label and outer tin, a packaging detail last seen in the early 2000s, and was reviewed by Whisky Advocate as having more sherry on the nose than the prior Batch 010, with citrus fruits, brine, peat smoke, vanilla, and charred oak across a long, sweet, medicinal finish. With the Laphroaig 10 Cask Strength program now well past Batch 011, this is a discontinued specific batch and increasingly hard to source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eABV \/ Proof\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLaphroaig\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLaphroaig Distillery, Isle of Islay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProducer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBeam Suntory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIslay Single Malt Scotch Whisky\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIslay, Scotland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 Years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBatch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e011\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBottled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarch 2019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCask\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFirst Fill Ex Bourbon Casks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58.6%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProof\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e117.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFiltration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon Chill Filtered\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColouring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePackaging\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReturn of the Green Stripe (last seen early 2000s)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoyal Warrant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGranted by HRH Prince Charles, 1994\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright golden amber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet and coastal, with malt, sea spray, lemon, antiseptic, and big notes of peat.

The Cask Strength edition is bottled straight from the cask at full natural strength (58.6% ABV for Batch 011), with no chill filtration and no added color. This preserves significantly more flavor compounds, oils, and body, delivering a much more intense and concentrated expression of the same underlying whisky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is special about Batch 011?\u003c\/strong\u003e Batch 011 was bottled in March 2019 and is notable for two reasons: it marks the return of the green stripe packaging last seen in the early 2000s, and was the final batch under the original release cadence before subsequent changes to the program. Reviewers including Whisky Advocate noted more sherry character on the nose than the prior batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does each batch taste different?\u003c\/strong\u003e The annual Cask Strength batches are drawn from different combinations of casks each year, with natural variation in cask selection, warehouse aging position, and final blend. While all batches share Laphroaig's signature heavy peated coastal profile, individual batches develop subtle differences in sweetness, smoke intensity, and finish that make collecting and comparing batches a popular hobby among Laphroaig enthusiasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere can I buy Laphroaig 10 Cask Strength Batch 011 online?\u003c\/strong\u003e Available here at Liquor On Broadway while stock lasts, with fast insured shipping nationwide.
