Tasting notes Serge Valentin: 90 points (WhiskyFun.com)
Time to try this older one that wasn’t bearing any age statements (they did put things straight later on).
Colour: straw.
Nose: of course. Smoked ginger, camphor, bandages, damp hessian, those famous tarry ropes, smoked almonds, whelks and clams, and burning kelp. To old whisky enthusiasts, this noses like… home. With water: gentler. Marzipan and barley water, then charcoal, beech-smoked salmon and Cadum. New Wellies, but small size.
Mouth (neat): of course. Lapsang souchong, lime juice, ginger tonic, kippers, cough syrup, grapefruit peels, smoked salmon. With water: natural rubber (chewing rubber bands at school), kippers, almond paste, Seccotine. Did you know of Seccotine?
Finish: long, smoky, salty, almondy, rather less lemony than other Ardbegs.
Comments: of course, Ardbeg.
