One of the best Ardbegs that the Ardbeg Aficionado can find.

Nose

Mellow and peaty at first nosing.

Dried apples, ripe lemons and a lovely sweetness in the background. Very elegant - Ardbeg at its very best.

Taste

At first sweet, then dry like cold strong tea, mild and a little bit velvety on the tongue with a lovely peatyness. Some dry Riesling wine as well. Somehow fresh, despite of its age. Excellent!

Finish

Long, remaining clean, dry and peaty.
