Tasting Notes
"The color of the dram is a pale gold and the aroma from the glass exhibits peat smoke, sweet malt, grassy and mossy notes, along with a sea spray and lemon zest. It's an inviting nose for sure. The whisky is somewhat plush and slightly oily on the palate and there's a peppery bite from the alcohol. But the sweet malt comes through and tames the spicy bite a bit. There's a touch of vanilla and chocolate notes along with some oak. The rye flavor comes through on further sips, but it's just a secondary note. With water it comes through a bit more but the barley nuttiness and the peat influences are still front and center. Overall it's another fun release from Ardbeg."
