Ardbeg Grooves

The smoke is overpowering, but in the best way possible. Incredible

Initially a wet smoke hits you. Then BBQ flavour and finally the Ardbeg herbal notes and sweetness come through. On the palate it's all out BBQ paired with sweetness and some honey. With water it gets sweeter and tends to switch to wet smoke again. The finish is long lasting, bold and rather smokey. Man this is terrific. The red wine really seems to go well with the ardbeg house style. This is by far the most complex and best Ardbeg I had. (90/100)

smokey, peaty. briny with much more subtle fruit and vanilla notes

Smell: strong, fruity and berries. Taste: super smooth, smoky, some fruits and berries. Feel: really attacking if too much is taken. Take when you have a long time to taste it.

Best ardbeg for my taste. It's more than smoke and sweet herbs than usually. The wine really comes through and improves the impression substantially! (92/100)
