Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
punchy and powerful (of course) but also very bourbonny, with bold whiffs of vanilla and oak as well as quite some warm milk. Also fruits (kiwi, green apples) and a slight smokiness (not exactly ‘peat’ I’d say). With water: now the peat comes out, with the usual whiffs of farmyard but also a huge soapiness, which happens quite often when you just added water. Let’s give it a little time… Okay, the soap vanished but there isn’t really any further development, except rather huge notes of cloves and genever
restaurant Palate
extremely sweet but also much, much peatier than on the nose. A little coffee and milk chocolate but also lots of pepper and ginger. A rather wild Ardmore on the palate but maybe water will tame it. With water: not really different, the pepper and peat are still here, maybe even bolder. Nice, long and compact finish, mostly on peat and crystallised lemon. A good peaty Ardmore. 81 points . Ardmore 15 yo 1990/2006 (59.7%, Signatory, cask #30015, 183 bottles)
