This wee lad promises to be Ardbeg's smokiest release yet! This five years old single malt from Islay's Arbeg is a true tongue-tingling, beautifully smoky whisky that packs lots of chocolate, cresote, and tar on the palate. We'd recommend trying this one in a smoky cocktail to give it the real kick it needs!

Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green | |
Finish | The long, salty mouthcoating finish retreats, with hints of cocoa and fudge slinking slowly away. |
Colour | A glint of bright Gold (Auric) |
Tasting Notes from the Producer | |
Aromas (without water) | The first sniff alerts you to a nearby presence… heightened senses are filled with very bright, fresh herbal notes, with creeping hints of vanilla and pear. Rich Turkish coffee mingles with sappy pine resin, with honey-glazed ham lurking in the background |
Flavour | Suddenly, a rich, explosive mouthfeel bursts forth with chocolate, creosote and tar. A powerful blast of eucalyptus thrashes about with antiseptic lozenges and aniseed. The raw, smoky intensity gathers pace, before smoked bacon and savoury meats sink into the palate. |
