This is, Without a doubt, The best peaty whisky i have ever had. Should i end the review right there? I should but i wont. I need people to read this, to discover it (it is actually part of the core range of ardbeg) and to buy it. I just called all my whisky lovers friends, and told them to get it. Lets start with the basics. 54.2% abv, amber color. On the nose is the perfect dram. It has every freaking aroma there is in any aroma chart: Peat. English sauce. Cream vanilla. Prunes. There is a beautiful balance between sweet and peat. Toffee. Bread. Wet vanilla cake, actually Banana bread but not banana. After a while, earthy peat, you can smell the mud mixed with the not-decomposed plants. Citric notes in small puffs. I wanted to give it a 24 at the beggining, but because of how complex it is, i got to give it a 25/25. It is absolutely overwhelming. Complex. Changing. Superb. Much better aroma than any other ardbeg i have had. Incredible. After more minutes, bonfire. Cake burnt. Hard dulce de leche. Even sherry and frozen red fruits after 20 mins. Or am i crazy? (Actually im not, i just read it has a sherry maturation). On the palate is also incredible. Pepper, Toffee, Ashy, Smoky, Sweet. Superb full mouth sensation. Very pleasant and full of flavor. Some sherriness present. Wow. Meat is also present. Aftertaste is magnificent. Smoke, Ashes, Mint, Ginger. It is eternal. More Ginger and a dim English sauce in the back. Overall i think this is one of my top 5 whiskies ever, (from this point on) dont be like me and wait this long to try it, buy it, IT IS NOT EXPENSIVE which makes it even more fantastic. I feel that i can now conquer the world, 100 over 100 is my score. SLAINTE MHATH!!!!!!!!
