A good Ardbeg but slightly disappointing considering the 70s vintage, too much cask influence overshadowing the smoke

A good Ardbeg but slightly disappointing considering the 70s vintage, too much cask influence overshadowing the smoke

Smoky tea, minty

Woody, pepper, sweet, slightly spicy, a nice balance of smoke & sweetness but leans more towards sherry sweetness towards the end

Long lemony, slightly bitter finish, the spices & cask influence becomes apparent
