Ardbeg Darkness - Pedro Ximenex Sherry Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky 24 Year Old
In stock
Ardbeg Distillery, founded in 1815 on Islay’s south coast, is widely regarded for producing some of the island’s most intensely peated whiskies. Its spirit is known for bold smoke, maritime salinity and complex sweetness, a combination that pairs particularly well with the deep fruit and syrupy richness of PX sherry casks.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark amber with mahogany depth and ruby-bronze glints, nearly opaque and glowing with velvety, sun-warmed chestnut.
Nose
Puzzling, inviting and appetising, the nose blends peat with dark sugar, freshly ground espresso, and tar. Richly smoky with a resinous, maritime edge, it draws you in and promises depth.
Palate
Starts sweet with ripe fruit, honey and malt, before a bold wave of peat and smoked barley anchors the palate with enduring smoke.
Finish
Elegant, long finish aged to perfection, elegantly complemented by PX sherry. Dark fruit and cocoa mingle with refined peat smoke, leaving a warm, lingering resonance that deepens with every breath.
