A phenomenal whisky packing powerful peaty deliciousness, Ardbeg 10 Year Old is a favourite of many whisky lovers around the world. Produced on the Kildalton Coast of Islay, this single malt matures for a decade before being bottled without any chill-filtration. If you're after a whisky full of coastal air, smoke and more, this is exactly what you want.
A ridge of vanilla leads to mountain of peat capped with citrus fruits and circled by clouds of sea spray.
Sweet vanilla counterbalanced with lemon and lime followed by that surging Ardbeg smoke that we all know and love.
Long and glorious; sea salted caramel and beach bonfire smoke.
Precise balance, big smoke and non-chill filtered. This is why this is such a famous dram.
If you don't like peat tone's you shouldn't buy it. But if you do... it is everything they say. A great buy
Bleach! Smells like the tar soap my gran used to use to wash us in. Tastes like nail varnish remover with a finish of Dettol.
Too smokey and a little too peaty for me.
Nuff said.
I Had seen another review saying it was citrusy and smoky . I Wholeheartedly agree!!! It is very present in the nose with a fruity smoke aroma kind of like operating a cider press next to a bonfire. Rather smooth at first then ending smoky. a big change from my usual of Bookers bourbon which is much sweeter and less smoky but a pleasant change non the less
