Nose
Phenolic. Burning tyre. Soon covered by more marine scents. Something mineral, brown seaweeds, a light note of fragrant sea air. The distillery character shining.
Palate
Sweet and velvety. The peat comes through smoke and a dry sooty feel. A touch of smoked haddock.
Finish
Dry, sooty, fresh.
Comment
The same phenolic profile as in very young but more disciplined and rounder.

Nose
Overtly peaty, sweeter than the Young One, lime marmalade, oak, floral, peat fire smouldering on the beach. With water, light soot and a balancing creaminess.
Palate
Sweet start. Phenols come in middle and towards the back, adding weight to the middle palate. Smoke moving into medicinal flavours.
Finish
Oatcake, smoke, lingering.
Comment
The feeling is of better integration and balance.

Rennaissance Dram
It's more than ten years since Ardbeg ended a period of stop-start production and went back on stream properly. And as Dominic Roskrow reports, it's going from strength to strength.

Ironically few subjects are likely to make a whisky aficionado's blood boil quicker than that of chill filtering. Ian Wisniewski presents the arguments
