| Ardbeg 10 years - Islay | |
| Colour - Amber with pale gold highlights. Nose - Exceptional balance and depth. At full strength, the aroma is a seductive mix of toffee and chocolate sweetness, cinnamon spice and medicinal phenols. Fresh citrus and floral notes of white wine are evident as are melon, pear drops, general creaminess, fresh phenolic aroma of seaspray (iodine) and smoked fish. Hickory and coffee emerge later as the most volatile top notes fade. Flavour - Very soft, mellow entry, then the spices and peat come through in a big way. Powerful, but with a balancing sweetness. Great length. Finish - Long and warming, with the smoke and pepper lasting longest. |
