Tasting Notes

"This malt hits the palate with sweet, smoky grace and a flavorful fruity hook. Smoldering smoke mingles on the nose with exotic fruits braced by chili and cloves. The oily palate is rich and united, balancing an Islay S’more of dark chocolate sandwiched between crackling wood. A late liniment note tugs into a long and heavenly toasted finish with refined peat holding it together from beginning to end. Ardbeg at its best."
