Ardbeg MOR 1st Edition - Feis Ile 2007 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (4.5 Litre Rehoboam) 10 Year Old · 1997 Vintage

Colour

Dark amber with mahogany-copper hues and a subtle ruby glow.

Nose

Intense peat smoke dominates, with maritime brine and iodine. Burnt sugar, dark cocoa, and espresso weave through dried fruit sweetness, while vanilla and leather cloak rich oak. A peppery spice threads through the aroma, hinting at the bottle's cask-strength character.

Palate

Powerful peat floods the palate with marine brine, iodine and char, then unfolds layers of espresso, dark chocolate and burnt sugar. Vanilla and orange zest weave through the smoke, while dried fruit hints from sherry add depth. Full-bodied, cask-strength warmth coats the mouth with a long, peppery finish.

Finish

An immense, coastward finish: peat smoke lingers, with iodine and sea salt gripping the palate as a warming blaze gradually yields cacao, dried fruit sweetness and a touch of vanilla. A resinous, tobacco-like warmth threads through, then slowly fades to a long, savory, smoky echo.
