Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

starts rather fruitier than expected, on bananas and butter pears. Then we have a little wax and linseed oil, then tea (both black and green), then wet paper and cardboard. Also something like metal polish (obvious OBE). Nice mint in the background but the whole is a little tired. Slight soapiness

restaurant Palate

dry and fruity at the same time (bananas again), quite tea-ish, gaining momentum with time but never getting totally satisfying

timer Finish

quite short, dry and woody. Little peat in this dry and rather tired Ardbeg. 81 points . Ardbeg 17 yo (46%, Cadenhead's dumpy, Sutti Milano, circa 1985)
