Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
lots of clay and modelling putty at first, then a lovely sweetness sets in, mainly on marzipan, fresh putty and shellfish, with very gentle seaweed and just hints of tar and mild mint. This is an Ardbeg leaning rather towards elegance
restaurant Palate
splendid! As gentle and restrained as the nose was, the palate bursts forth with salinity, grapefruit and sheer coastal peat, you get the impression of swallowing seawater or taking a massive wave full in the face. The rest is extraordinary, with all the usual suspects: gentian, chartreuse, absinthe, limoncello, oysterleaf and a myriad of tiny edible herbs, the whole as precisely tuned as a V12
timer Finish
long, more medicinal, and feeling more like 50% than 46, with an increasingly oily texture and an aftertaste on the trio of ashes, lemon and seawater
