Dear Chrilly,
Ok, I am very happy to agree on the cask-strength. If this motivates you to start work soon, so much the better!Cask-strength or the 40%? Personally I prefer the cask-strength. Its the real Laphroaig. Smells like at the dentists, tastes like diesel-oil, but once you get used to it, you are hooked. I think I have to start the project under all circumstances. Winning a Laphroiag is a real target.
