Tasting Notes
Nose
A curious hint of olive oil greets the nose, accompanied by subtle notes of tar, soot, chocolate ginger, and freshly cut grass. Adding water reveals more classic Ardbeg aromas, with fennel, peppermint, eucalyptus, and tarry rope taking center stage.
Palate
The texture is slightly oily, leading into an intense, minty sweetness, followed by toasted bread, creosote, coal tar soap, and a hint of smoked pineapple. The deep, rich flavors continue with dark chocolate, peppermint creams, bonfire embers, and camphor.
Finish
The finish lingers with notes of coffee grounds and liquorice.
