Tastes

Am I crazy here to say this Ardbeg 10 isn't smokey enough? This is very good whisky, honestly tastes like caol ila 12 but with more smoke, brine and seaweed flavour. The smoke level is nowhere near let's say a Laphroaig quarter cask. Very good would buy again! Definitely worth a try

Absolutely delicious. If you like brine and savory this is for you. The Peat level in this whisky is very light, no where near let's say ARDBEG UIGEADAIL. It tastes like the glenfarclas 105 but really briney, savory, and slightly peaty

A very interesting blend, not bad at all definitely worth $30 that I payed. Like the label says, it's definitely comprised of "mature grain and single malt scotch", I don't taste any harshness like in the bottom end blends. It tasted like Johnnie walker black, without the fruitiness and with more peat and smoke. It taste like a more refined version of black grouse. It's quite enjoyable Definitely worth a try!

Honey and Heather are the main traits. Although it's one dimensional, it's not really. It's quite rich, can taste bourbon maturation and a bit of sherry. Oakiness is also apparent, taste like the GLENLIVET 15 but a bit richer

For the price is very mediocre it's not bad but it's not good either. Has a interesting beeswax smell, not too flavourful. Taste a bit fruity, hot on the finish. Decent, definitely good on the rocks or for mixing because it's VERY mild. But not for sipping

Absolutely delicious. Tastes exactly like the label says "rich, intense, smokey" it has the same richness as a olorosso matured whisky but it's different instead of a intense chocolate fruit sherry flavour your getting like more chocolate campfire amber ash taste if that makes sense. Great product, if you love the 10 you'll love this. 10 is more briney and fruity, this is more dark and smokey.

For $30 this is very cheap single malt. Not too bad, doesn't have the fresh fruit bourbon taste as one would expect from its maturation in ex bourbon barrels however the sherry is quite notable. Is it good? Meh, is it bad? Not at all. This whisky is very medicore that is all

The nose is really good, fruity, buttery, and a whisp of smoke. On the Palate is same flavours as the nose but also is really rich for a blend and has a nice sherry taste to it. But this is where it shows that this is a blend, can taste some grain but not in a gross way. Its matured quite well with only a slight tint of bitternes. Its also quite smooth. It's a bit spicey but the good thing is its not extremely grainy which is nice. Spicey fruity, a tiny bit of smoke finish, and it's quite short. For the price I would say this is on par with johnnie walker black label. Tastes like the white label but a bit smoother and less rough around the edges and more intense. 3.5 out of 5, I paid $35 CAD for this any wouldn't pay over $40

Beautiful soft and complex, perfect balance between bourbon maturation and sherry. It tastes like a wet sweet Sherried seaweed bog with fresh fruit notes. Flavour profile is very similar to the highland park 18. Very good!
