Ardbeg Uigeadail Whisky 70cl

BRILLIANT!🥃🥃🥃🤗

Excellent for a core expression affordable luxury malt it's pretty damn tasty. Peaty , smoke, fruit, lemon and coastal flowers, definitely worth a try. You won't be disappointed. Everyone palate is individual so only thing to do is try it. It's a very good one

I’m shocked by some of the reviews, suggesting it’s watery or easy to drink. I drink a lot of different whisky regularly and this goes straight to my number one spot. Many whiskies these days are bottled ready to drink (neat), which is my preference. This one is strong and complex, it demands a touch of water to open it up, I would suggest that you start neat and gradually add water, noting how it changes. If you like Ardbeg in general, you’ll love this one.

Given its ABV, this is very approachable stuff with a flavour profile combining buttery sweetness (I get cookie dough & marzipan on the in-breath..?) and plenty of dark peat smoke. The nose is a ridiculously alluring umami/salty meatiness, which makes the subsequent sweetness on the palate so striking. But it works - it really does. The finish is long and brings everything together nicely – satisfyingly dry and numbing but without overpowering. A nightcap to sip slowly and deliberately.

This is so tasty,sounds silly but this triggers memories,actual and imagined,colours,puddles of petrol on the industrial estate I used to work on,not as in your face as BizarreBQ, which I loved,I like this,alot!

it’s the best.

Ardberg 10 is one of my favourites so I thought I'd treat myself to the next evolution and get this. I'll be honest, on first sip I just wasn't getting it, it was good but not worth the praise it seems to get. After leaving it to air out a bit I realised I was too hasty, this one needs time to breathe, and does it ever reward you for your patience. Smooth, complex and moreish, this one takes you on a ride. Very very good.

I was massively impressed by this whisky. I had read and watched plenty of reviews, all of them saying this is the one to go for.

I tried it with a friend and the finish was so great that when we both took a sip, we paused and then it hit us! Wow, what a whisky.

I have been working my way through the Islay whiskies, and had been building up to two that seemed often cited as the best examples of Islay (for under £100), this and Lagavulin 16. I finally treated myself to a bottle of each at the same time, and while I loved them both, this won for me. Maybe the Lagavulin 16 was too built up in my head and I was slightly underwhelmed, but I was really blown away by the Uigeadail. I love the Ardbeg 10 too, but this is a different level for me.

Complex, smooth and surprisingly easy drinking for the alcohol content, this is the best Island single malt in my opinion. Just bought my second bottle 🥃
