Tastes

Great peat aroma and taste. Smells like clothes the day after a campfire! As a new taster I really had to search for the sweetness, but after I found it, wow! A really fresh caramel smell! Easier to smell than taste due to the high alcohol content though. This is actually my new favorite whisky. Thanks to Ardbeg I now know I love peat. The complex tastes lingers for a long while, but as a new guy to this I cannot identify them (is that really Pear I taste on the back end?). This whisky makes me want to taste more and know more!
