Re-review at bottle kill. Purchased: June 20, 2019 Killed: January 24, 2020 Treacle. Bacon. Bonfires. That's what is printed on the bottle. How appropriate. Couldn't have said it better myself. I've said it before, there's no bad Ardbeg, just good Ardbeg and better Ardbeg. As is sipped on the last remnants of this bottle I tried to think of anything that wasn't great about this bottle. It's so popular on this platform and raved about by whisky reviewers around the world. Surely it can't live up to the hype. As I kept sipping, I for once couldn't come up with anything. Peat? Yep. Sherry? Yep. Good ABV? Yep. This may perhaps be a rare example of a bottle getting better as you get to the bottom. At the risk of cheapening the five-star review, I'm sending one out here. I've even gone so far as to adjust past five-star reviews I've given (in this case lowering them) to reflect my current opinions about those pours, and to illustrate just how good this one is. It maintained its integrity from neck pour to bottle kill, and quite honestly, was a steel at the price I paid for it. While Talisker will always have my heart as my top peated dram, Ardbeg remains a fond friend and close confidant. Cheers!
