Tasting Notes

Nose

Aged peat, dark chocolate, dried fruit. Twenty-five years have transformed Ardbeg's famously intense peat into something of extraordinary beauty. The smoke is still there — it never leaves — but it has mellowed into a complex, layered elegance. Beneath the aged peat, espresso, old leather, beeswax and a maritime grace.

Palate

Sublime — aged peat, dark fruit, chocolate, a waxy elegance. Twenty-five years have revealed dimensions in Ardbeg's spirit that younger expressions cannot possess. The smoke is refined, the fruit complex, the oak perfectly integrated. Mid-palate brings roasted nut, coffee, a gentle maritime character. Every sip reveals something new.

Finish

Extraordinarily long, with aged peat elegance and dark fruit sustaining in a magnificent, multi-layered fade.

Expert Review

9/10

A quarter-century of Ardbeg — the peat transformed into something sublime, with a depth that defies description.
