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)
