Tasting Notes
Nose: Rich, deep and spicy. Woody depths contrast with spicy notes of cinnamon, ginger, clove and nutmeg, alongside hints of Brazil nuts in toffee, dates, figs and raisins and a little linseed oil. A splash of water reveals Ardbeggian notes of flowering blackcurrants and aged balsamic vinegar. Taste: A luxuriously oily but peppery texture leads into an explosion of spice, molasses and Brazil nuts laced with eucalyptus. Sweet honey-coated nuts ebb and flow with savoury notes of maple-cured bacon and antique leather. Finish: Rich and slightly savoury, with notes of sourdough bread, Christmas cake and coffee.

Ardbeg
Established in 1815 by John McDougal, Ardbeg Distillery is located on the Kildalton Peninsula of the Isle of Islay—a region celebrated for its peaty single malts. Drawing soft, peaty water from Loch Uigeadail and Loch Airigh nam Beist in the hills behind the distillery, Ardbeg crafts an iconic range of whiskies, including the highly regarded Ardbeg Uigeadail and Ardbeg 10 Year Old. Each year, Ardbeg takes part in the Feis Ile, the island’s world-renowned Festival of Malt and Music, welcoming visitors to its distillery tours and the Old Kiln Café, which serves mouthwatering Scottish fare. Immerse yourself in Ardbeg’s rich heritage and discover why it remains a standout name among Islay single malt whisky distilleries.
