Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
bold passion fruit and peat. Most enjoyable. Fresh and lively. Gets then a little peppery and spicy. A refined and elegant Ardbeg that might show a little bottle age. Too bad it’s quite unstable, both the smoke and the fruit do vanish soon, and it gets really farmy (horse stable)
restaurant Palate
pepper and farmy notes at first, getting grassy and a little bitter. Hints of fructose and peardrops. Not spectacular, but not too bad either. Farmier than usually - the 1974 was so much better, but again, 1974 was a magic year at Ardbeg's. 81 points. Ardbeg 1990/2003 (46%, G&M for Symposion Sweden, cask #3133, sherry)
