Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

a softer Ardbeg it seems, starting on vanilla cake and porridge but getting then more phenolic, tarry and earthy. Also notes of fat oysters, fresh hazelnuts, ripe apples and marzipan. Good stuff on the nose but maybe it lacks the sharpness of earlier versions by Murray McDavid – a matter of taste of course

restaurant Palate

sharper now, peppery, lemony, earthy and almondy, with these typical tarry notes that only Ardbeg and sometimes Port Ellen can display. Classic

timer Finish

long, with more pepper, bitter almonds and salt. One for your hipflask
