1st Place (International Whisky Competition)
Best Single Malt Scotch 10 Years - 2015
Ardbeg 10 Years Old is revered around the world as the peatiest, smokiest, a most complex single malt of them all. Yet it does not flaunt the peat; rather it gives way to the natural sweetness of the malt to produce a whisky of perfect balance. Named World Whisky of the Year in 2008.
Nose | A ridge of vanilla leads to a mountain of peat capped with citrus fruits and circled by clouds of sea spray. |
Palate | Sweet vanilla counterbalanced with lemon and lime followed by that surging Ardbeg smoke that we all know and love. |
Finish | Long and glorious; sea salted caramel and beach bonfire smoke. |
Overall | Precise balance, big smoke and non-chill filtered. This is why this is such a famous dram. |
