Product description

Product description
Ardbeg Heavy Vapours is the bottling for the Islay Music and Malt Festival 2023. For the first time in the distillery's history, it was distilled without a purifier. This filter above the still is crucial for the balance between smoke flavours and floral fruitiness. The label and design are part of the distillery's science fiction novel, which was already created last year by top-class graphic designers and artists.

    Aroma: Lime Oak Bonfire Smoke Seaweed

    Geschmack: Peat Smoke Maritime Notes Sweet Malt Spices

    Abgang: Ginger Herbs Seaweed Peat Smoke

    Kommentar: Ein schöner knackiger Ardbeg. Den kann man echt empfehlen. Alle Erwartungen erfüllt.

    Aroma: Rauchig und kräftig – Asche, dunkle Schokolade und etwas Vanille.

    Geschmack: Ölig und intensiv, mit Torfrauch, Pfeffer, Lakritz und süßem Malz.

    Abgang: Lang, warm und rußig mit einer Spur Kakao.

    Kommentar: Ein echter Ardbeg mit ordentlich Dampf – lecker, aber Uigeadail und Corryvreckan find ich noch besser.

    Aroma: Farbe: Noch blasser als der 10-Jährige! Fast schon wie ein Weißwein!
    Typische Ardbeg-Noten (Maritim, medizinisch, fleischig, torfig/rauchig, süßlich) aber auch Menthol, Litschie, chemische Substanzen, viel holzige Noten.

    Geschmack: Torfig, robust und süß-pikant: Hustensaft, Menthol, reiner Zuckersaft mit Zitronen, Minze und Apotheken-Bonbons.

    Abgang: Für Ardbegverhältnisse eher kurz bis mittel: Fleischig mit viel Restsüße, die herb würzig zitronig/mentholig rüberkommt.

    Kommentar: Von den jährlich erscheinenden Ardbeg-Abfüllungen mit 46 %, für mich persönlich, bisher die Schlechteste! "Kelpie" "Drum" "Grooves" um nur ein paar zu nennen: Allesamt besser im Geschmack und ihr Geld wert! Das Experiment mit den ausgeschateten Purifiern war doch nicht so erträglich. Preis/Leistung nicht so gut! Würde jederzeit Whiskies aus dem Kernsortiment vorziehen! Trotzdem ist und bleibt ER ein ARDBEG: Die PURE Essenz von Islay! Deswegen 3 Sterne!
