Ardbeg 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky Review:

As reviewed first through my instagram: @lifeofawhiskeydrinker


Ardbeg 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky Review:

Price: Around $50.00 for a 750ml bottle.

Packaging/Labeling: Iconic, with a craft presentation stating it is non-chill filtered.

Alcoholic Content: 46% abv, 92 proof.

Nose: The nose is a peat and iodine bomb. Winter notes of briny pepper, citrus, and vanilla. Reminds one of cold walks through the neighborhood when you can smell all the chimney smoke.

Palate: The palate is a blast of eucalyptus and peat. Wonderfully balanced. Salt and sea. Peppermint tea with lemon. A long finish with salted caramel and smoke.

Conclusion: For those winter days where you need the cold knocked out of you, this non-chill filtered Islay classic is the perfect choice.


Rating: Excellent/Highly Recommended
