Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

typically beautiful mix of seawater, diesel, drying kelp, old rope and tar. An extremely pure expression of peat - the kind that is unique to 60s and 70s Ardbeg. The 40% abv leaves you with a curiously dissonant impression of fragility and power. Yet, the overall impression remains one of evocative beauty and peaty harmonics

restaurant Palate

as big and majestic as whisky can be at 40%. Soots, embrocations, seawater, ink, tar, TPC and an almost gelatinous peatiness

timer Finish

long, fat and superbly earthy, sooty and smoky
