    Overview

    Ardbeg Uigedail

     
    The undiluted nose is deep and rounded - chocolate caramels and barley sugar combine with dates, raisins and smooth sherry notes. Later, you find leather and linseed oil. With water the sweetness gives way to malted honeycomb, with flowering currants emerging through the smoky sweetness of a well-fired fruit pudding.
     
    Sweet, chewy and oily with a silky mouthfeel. The flavour is initially sweet, revealing fruit cake and treacle. This is followed by barbecued or honey roast food with the slightest hint of olives.

    The finish is long, both sweet and dry with honey, treacle and a trace of lint. 

    ABV: 54.2% 

    Background Information:
    Established in 1815, Ardbeg is the "Ultimate Islay Malt Whisky", revered by connoisseurs around the world as the peatiest, smokiest and most complex of all the Islay malts widely available. 

    It boasts a true complexity, balancing smoky peatiness and intriguing sweetness, a phenomenon that has affectionately become known as "the peaty paradox". 

    Ardbeg Uigeadail  takes its name from the hill loch which supplies the peat-laden water to the distillery on Islay, and is famed for its deep, rich, smoky complexity.

    Winner of 'World Whisky of the Year 2009' in the latest edition of the Whisky Bible by Jim Murray.
