A buddy brought this over tonight for our Christmas party, but I only got a small taste so no rating tonight.
Compared to Ugi, it’s got an ashy quality to it, and a much dryer smoke profile. It’s lovely, and you can tell the influence from the French oak and bourbon casks. I think I still prefer the sherry influence from Ugi or An Oa, but there is no bad Ardbeg. Just good Ardbeg and better Ardbeg. Cheers!

4.5 out of 5 stars
Smokey bacon, salt, seaspray and dedicated fruit. A drier, less oily finish that the standard 10yo, which is not a bad thing. Thanks, french limousine casks!
