Description
Ardbeg 25 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a testament to the power of time and skillful aging. Here’s a glimpse into its captivating flavor profile:
Aroma
A complex interplay of aromas greets you first. The signature Ardbeg smoke is present, but it’s beautifully balanced by notes of cream, toffee, peppermint, and fennel. Hints of pine resin and earthy bonfires add depth and intrigue.
Palate
The first sip delivers a silky smooth texture, a result of the extended aging. The signature Ardbeg smoke unfolds, but it’s surprisingly sweet thanks to the ex-bourbon barrel influence. You’ll find flavors of white pepper, sherbet lemon, candied apples, and even a touch of tar. The smokiness lingers throughout, complemented by hints of aniseed and rich, medicinal notes.
Finish
Long and warming, with the smoke and sweetness leaving a lasting impression. A touch of apricot emerges on the finish, adding a surprising and delightful twist.
