Ardbeg
Scotland
Single Malt
An Oa is named after the Mull of Oa in the south west of Islay, which offers the Kildaton coast (where Ardbeg distillery is situated) some protection from the worst the Atlantic has to offer! As such, Ardbeg An Oa is intended to show a more approachable side to Ardbeg single malt that's as rounded as the Oa peninsula, without losing the characteristic distillery style. In the summer of 2017 this became the first addition to Ardbeg's core range in over a decade.
Maturation took place in a combination of casks including Pedro Ximénez, charred virgin oak and ex-bourbon, which were all brought together to marry in Dr. Bill Lumsden's new 'Gathering Vat'!
This sweet, creamy Ardbeg offers notes of butterscotch, fennel seed, tobacco leaf, Honey Nut Clusters and hints of mixed boiled sweets (fruit, Everton mint and menthol). The citrus notes are subtle and rich, coming through as flourless orange cake.
Still plenty of peaty oomph, although perhaps lighter in body. Notes of cigars and golden syrup flapjacks with sweet black tea on the tail and hints of chocolate limes.
Smoky treacle lingers with a little peanut brittle.
It's quite good but will be a disappointment to anyone who's tried the excellent Ardbeg 10 year.
First time trying Ardbeg. Love Talisker, Bruichladdich, Octomore, Laphroaig. This fell far short. Harsh and unenjoyable. Will try again sine I own the bottle, but not a good first impression.
An excellent whisky in this price bracket . Lovely sweet undertones, a touch of peat and gentle smokiness Very very good
One of the best whiskies i’ve ever tried in my life!
One of the best around better than a lot of the more expensive bottles from other distilleries
