Excellent Ardbeg with lots of distillery character despite of the sherry hogshead.
-
Warming, fresh and fruity (oranges). Sea spray, orange zest and smoked fish.
-
Powerful and peaty. Austere, clean and rather dry. There are notes of smoked tea, wood and hints of sherry, but the sherry is not obvious - still a typical old Ardbeg. Very tasty.
-
Very long, peaty and pleasant.
