Description
The Ardbeg distillery, arguably the most famous of the famous Islay malts, was founded in 1815.
Best known for making some of the most heavily peated whisky in theworld, Ardbeg has experimented with many different types of maturation in its many years of producing malt whisky.
The brand has developed a massive cult following, organised into The Ardbeg Committee with a worldwide membership of over 110,000.
Ardbeg Ten Years Old is revered around the world as the peatiest, smokiest, 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.
Typically most whiskies are chill-filtered and reduced to a strength of 40% ABV.
Ardbeg Ten Years Old, however, is non chill-filtered and has a strength of 46% ABV, thus retaining maximum flavour, at the same time giving more body and added depth.

Tasting Notes
Nose: A ridge of vanilla leads to a mountain of peat capped with fresh citrus fruits and then rounded off with the aroma of sea spray.
Palate: Sweet vanilla is counterbalanced with citrus, lemon and lime followed by the surging Ardbeg smoke that we have all come to know and love.
Finish: Long and stunning; sea salted caramel and beach bonfire smoke complete the glorious finish.
