A private tasting with John Campbell, oh to be at that table!

[@max917]

You said it best, what I'd give to have a dram with John Campbell.

[@onYTsince2008]

It's such an amazing to be with the best!

[@kissinuk]

Great to see you got John Campbell involved, you should put his name in the title!

[@cloverleaf383]

We visited the distillery in 2018. Best distillery tour amongst all we visited.

[@mr.scully8661]

i LOVE laphroaig ohh its, a must have nothing compares, it goes great with a smoked steak in hickory every time i open a bottle of laphroaig i'm reminded of my last cook out. its so good 50 dollars a bottle, is almost to much but i almost want to stow it away for good times. my boys on this camping trip will get this in there glass only cause i love this spirit so much. wish i could have this every day laphroaig 10 is the best ever.

[@Avalk9724]

Why this hasn't got millions of wiews? This is SUPER interesting video! Thank you Ben!

[@jeffswhiskeylounge509]

I must admit I am a bit envious that Ben had the opportunity to have a drink with John Campbell. What John did for Laphroaig was legendary, and every Laphroaig whisky that came out during his tenure has been excellent. I have great respect for John, and I wish he hadn't left Laphroaig.

[@mjklein]

But I wasn't interested in John's tasting notes at the start of each tasting. I wish he would have let Ben taste and just kept quiet until Ben gave us his impressions first. Truth is, I felt that John talked way too much overall.

[@mekore]

i like the manager, so chill

[@jackzhang631]

love how Benedikt just seems to wanna rush to tasting while John keeps on sharing information lol

[@foxhound5702]

pretty natural thing to do when you have 4 glasses of Laphroaig in front of you lol

[@konradkurz8353]

Excellent tour, and John Campbell being a lovely guide to the world of whiskey as always!

[@dayne746]

"Yeah peaty flavors", indeed. You are one lucky man. Great content. Thank you.

[@carchariasspartania3958]

These tour videos hit differently when you have the distillery's spirit in your hand. :)

[@carchariasspartania3958]

That's the most Scottish tablecloth I've ever seen. Perfect. :p

[@mmmhorsesteaks]

Amazed how open he is about the process and the casks and so on...

[@geneirvine9710]

Thank you. Spending Christmas day watching your videos! Cheers from Canada

[@MrAxzxz]

Excellent video with great content.

[@JeremyDore]

Nice video, thanks for posting.

[@max917]

Thank God for John Campbell at the helm. Long live Laphroaig.

[@weinerdogcat3101]

Great review, good insight into how they think about the brand going into the future.

[@h1n1worm]

when he speaks about nonage statements like as a compromise i see a bottle of tripple wood on my shelf - a real gem! please do more like that!

[@Tommy_ZM]

Happy I bought the 200th anniversary 32 year. What a bottle

[@murdoc4794]

@4:15 -- "We need that damn peat" :)

[@Angelof236]

damp

[@williamhyland4253]

Really enjoyed this one

[@iannash7051]

Love it!

[@kaloyanski]

Awesome!

[@foxhound5702]

Just picked up a bottle of the discontinued 18 year old. was expensive but I wanted it in my collection badly!

[@Pladderkasse]

Good move to get J. Campbell in there, very informative.

[@dvran]

Thanks.

[@galantpictures2502]

I love LAPHROAIG !

[@jaymcbakerk]

Laphroaig has 4 spirit stills because the big one on the end is only used to distill the discarded cuts from the other spirit stills

[@smzig]

I tried Laphroaig as my first foray into Islay Scotch. Wooooo, it puts hair on your chest! It also makes an excellent smokey coke.

[@chefprov]

I was there in December,,,,, 😍😍😍😍😍

[@herrskymarshall]

great video!

[@pradeephistory]

Laphroaig has a great demand around the globe How you mee the demand and produce ?

[@wm3m3]

Great tour, but it doesn't show the room where the burnt band-aids are added.

[@lucaparolin5623]

Ahah exactly, and when do they add iodine solution to the mix?

[@300pzl]

that a sip every time he warns the whiskey glass with his hands.

[@skizzarz]

highly educational, thanks!

[@cmarnold78]

Cant believe this has only 16k views

[@joeninety4740]

Son of Horst, chip off the block. Quality video. V informative.

[@kmidst_kn6329]

I absolutely love how the whiskey companies look out for each other and are almost symbiotic in some cases. I wonder how some whiskeys like Laphroig tasted before they started using ex-bourbon casks for finishing!

[@tarabottogino]

Is that how it is pronounce the name of the distillery? La-Fro-iiK? (+/-).

[@onYTsince2008]

Hmmm, I was actually sipping an Ardbeg An Oa while watching this Laphroaig video ! 😂🤷‍♂️

[@northeastrc2725]

Only ever had the 10 year but for newyear i have got my brother comeing up what would you say i should try next

[@billmonteith1161]

Try the Lore or Quarter Cask if you can find it. 10 cask strength is really good as well

[@chrismcdaniel6035]

Laphroaig is the best whiskey ever

[@SKinnyPete93]

I wish you asked him how they can not feel embarrassed selling watered down 40% Laphroaig 10 year old...

[@zigabadoo2131]

13:50.. Is Ben having a stroke??

[@mattbrunsdon5861]

...shovel

[@MOFOSGTFO]

Most flavorful Islay. It's a damn shame they still use e150a

[@lucaparolin5623]

I agree, but I would rather at least 43% instead, I don't mind the coloring in this one.

[@cloverleaf383]

@@lucaparolin5623the 10 year old cask strength is incredible…

[@Brad-ic4bp]

This video makes me wish I liked peated Schotch. I really tried, but...no:).

[@rometimed1382]

It is not fair. Laphroaig is the best. I have been through many and for my taste the Laproiag 10 is the best whisky on the planet.

[@lucaparolin5623]

I agree with you, I just love the flavor profile, if only was at least 43% I would drink only this...

[@ronaldsantosjapan]

So...I’m guessing Laphroaig is not for independence. They’d have to surrender some bragging rights otherwise.

[@revolvermaster4939]

Tell Laphroaig that real whisky is 46% ABV or better, non-chill filtered and natural color.
