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.

Read about the awards. This was also recommended to me by a friend. But can't get past the medicinal smell and taste. Money spent but not drinking this. 2 stars because of the apparent appreciation for this in the single malt community.
Superb
One of the smokiest whiskeys I've tried, and I love it for that! In my opinion smokier than Lagavulin, Laphroaig and possibly even Caol Ila. If you don't like peaty whiskey this is most definitively not for you.
EXCELLENT, SUPERB DRINK EVER I HAD IN MY LIFE.
Quite siply (sic!) the best malt whisky that has ever kissed my lips! A true treat in a tumbler....
