Ardbeg Perpetuum

Nosent is pretty strong at first. There's peat there, but it's not overwhelming. A bit of orange zest, a hint of salt/brine. The taste is fairly light but complex. Starts off sweet and ends salty. You can taste some young and wild whisky as well as some more mature and smooth stuff in it. Less sweet and peaty than the ten year, but not as salty as the corryvreckan. Very enjoyable, but not my favorite ardbeg.

For the price ($90), it's not bad. Certainly brings a muted old Ardbeg taste and aroma, but a creamier, more floral touch as well. If given one choice to buy, I'd still go for the Corry, followed by 10, and then Aurivedes.
