Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 9 by Michael Jackson and Dave Broom.

Whisky Magazine is the perfect complement to the dram in your glass. Every issue brings you fascinating articles on the art, science and romance of the 'water of life', plus page after page of tasting notes.

Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Tar-covered rope.
Palate
Tar-like. Medicinal. Seaweedy. Salty. Behind all of those dry flavours, a background of light, clean, fresh, maltiness and lemon-skin fruitiness.
Finish
Sandy, peppery.
Comment
Not from a particularly peaty period, but packed with Ardbeg's other flavours. Wonderfully distinctive.

Dave Broom

Nose
Astoundingly smoky, yet delicate with subtle tarry notes behind. With water the smoke dies a little and raisin and caramelised apple notes emerge.
Palate
An immediate waft of peat smoke. Full, robustly flavoured with turf and lapsang souchong tea.
Finish
Salty, long and filled with fragrant peat reek.
Comment
A punch in the chops from a stroppy Islay middleweight. Flavour-packed yet delicate.
