Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라 남부 킬다턴 해안의 아드벡은 가장 강렬한 피트로 위스키 애호가를 사로잡아 온 전설적 증류소다. 32년의 긴 숙성이 버번 호그스헤드에서 잔에 옅은 금빛으로 비친다. 향은 가라앉은 피트 연기와 타르, 레몬과 열대 과일이 복합적으로 솟는다. 42.8도의 입은 부드러워진 훈연과 꿀, 갯내가 우아하게 흐른다. 여운에는 식은 재와 미네랄이 길고 담담하게 남는다.

yah! It's the wood that talks first in this one, which is pretty unusual with old Ardbegs. Starts on varnish, plain oak and pineapple liqueur, which is even more unusual! It's only after quite a while that Ardbeg's sootiness comes through - and beautifully so. Also a little tar, eucalyptus and seashells (oysters). To be honest, this isn't very complex whisky, it'll all happen on the palate - hopefully

ho-ho-ho, this is immensely medicinal and absolutely stunning. High concentration, loads of resinous and herbal flavours (spearmint, chlorophyl gums, marzipan, smoked lemon (and why not?), mint and chocolate (After Eight), eucalyptus drops, salmiak, lemon-flavoured fudge, clams, more mint, aniseed, dill, ginger and cloves (dentist's)...) Simply amazing. Please call the anti-maltoporn brigade!

long and wide yet fresh, herbal, mentholaded and kippery
