Ardbeg
This 16 year old was matured in ex-bourbon casks. The rather ominous 'Airigh Nam Beist' derives from the Scotch Gaelic for 'Shelter of the Beast'. Ardbeg describe this as "Ardbeg Ice Cream" - we couldn't agree more.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
The best Islay I've tasted. Wish I had another on my shelf. Who's running Ardbeg these days? Alligator?, Galileo???
I can't believe how good this whisky is. Nothing compares!
I found this similar to the 10yo but much smoother, gentler peat smoke and creamier. A Islay relaxation malt indeed, I Love it. Can be hard to find these days, buy whenever you can find it.
This is the most pungent 'standard' strength Ardbeg. It's full bodied, peaty, tarry, tobaccoey but not overly ethanolic. If you want big weight without the high alcohol content, this is your dram!
A nice dram, but a bit strong on the Bourbon for my liking. It does have a rich peatiness however which lets you know that you are drinking a mature Ardbeg. Strong nose of tobacco pouch. Tastes of bourbon and finishes with long satisfying peat.
