Ardbeg Scorch - Ardbeg Day 2021 Single Malt Scotch Whisky
In stock
Bottled to celebrate Ardbeg Day 2021, Ardbeg Scorch was matured in ex-Bourbon casks charred by the fiery exhale of Dunnage Warehouse 3’s – definitely real and not at all made up – FLAVOUR BREATHING DRAGON. Intense aromas of soot and smoke lie in wait, while grilled fare and black liquorice mingle with bold notes of antiseptic lozenge. This limited edition single malt whisky is truly a dram of fantastical proportions.
Product Details
Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with coppery highlights and a burnished, smoky glow.
Nose
Nutty, spicy and intensely smoky, this nose unfolds with soot-laden peat and grilled-char warmth. Black liquorice swirls with antiseptic lozenge notes, while herbal fennel and pine threads add freshness, an oily, lingering smoke shaping the drama to come.
Palate
Oil-rich and spicy on the palate, it erupts with antiseptic lozenges, tar and liquorice, threaded by clove and pepper. Then a wave of sweet smoke—briar and sandalwood—lingers, leaving a long, warming, smoky finish.
Finish
A long, subtle finish: sooty, tarry notes linger on the palate.
