One of the most exciting whisky releases from 2010! The 2010 edition of Supernova, stronger, more pungent in flavour, and more earthy than the previous year's release.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Very punchy and full bodied, huge in fact, just an enormous array of flavour with notes of espresso, berry fruits, huge chilli flavours, black pepper, agave, mescal, then dried fruit, hints of tar.
Hot spices, chilli, more black pepper. This is an epic whisky, with flavours of calves leather, cigars, with a peat whack the likes of which we've never come across before. Despite the fact this is less peaty in terms of phenols than Octomore 2, it just seems more powerful. Espresso, hints of chocolate, anise, pine resin. It goes on and on and develops.
Builds on the palate flavours, it has this huge chilli flavour, and all the heat and spice that comes with it. Hot tar, creosote, dry ropes, vanilla.

Bottle on the way.Heard so many things about this dram and really excited to try it out!
Im one of those who prefers SN09. But if i have to choose its gonna be Uigeadail all week long. Thats a really good one!
Bought a bottle of the ardbeg supernova 2010 from a site last year for 90 quid its nice to see its gone up in price by a considerable ammount in the space of 9 months. Will be hanging onto this bottle! ££££
much better than first relase. younger but more intense. And half the price.
A very big inital punch on the nose but after about 15min the complexity of this scotch is quite outstanding. Huge peat, (but not as much as Octomore), smokey, tar, pepper, earthy, with slight overtones of wild berry. I prefer this over the 2009 since it is more complex and less predictable. Get it while you can!
