Description: | History,. Something weird has been going down at the Distillery. The legendary purifier on the still responsible for Ardbegs exalted balance is nowhere to be seen. And this whisky Ardbeg Heavy Vapours is the consequence. The familiar harmony between peat and floral fruitiness has been disrupted. What have risen are the untamed darker flavours and notes, gathering and filling the senses. It is an ominous dram of dramatic, aromatic pungency. Heavy Vapours will rise. Tasting Notes,. Nose: Smoke rises with a cloying sweetness. Intense, pungent and aromatic, a distinctive farmyard scent drifts, along with a crunchy aroma, like Creosote or tarry rope. A splash of water disturbs the vapours and Dark Chocolate Cream billows, laced with a ribbon of Smoked Artichoke. Palate: Ardbegs Untamed darker flavours and notes have risen. A burst of bittersweetness Surges, disturbing ashy coal Dust and casting a Haze of Cardamom, peppermint and Coffee grits. Clouds Of dark chocolate and mentholic eucalyptus Roll In, Obscuring the fruit and floral notes usually found at the heart of Ardbeg. Wisps of Aniseed twists, Cinnamon balls and antiseptic lozenges Float on the palate. Finish: The aftertaste lingers Long and Bold, with an almost anaesthetising sensation. |
