Ardbeg 8 - For Discussion (Committee Release)

Ardbeg 8 - For Discussion (Committee Release)⁣⁣

⁣Bottled at 50.8% ⁣⁣⁣⁣

Cask Type: ex Sherry Cask.⁣⁣

Ardbeg say - ⁣Ardbeg 8 Years Old is a big, youthful, deliberately challenging whisky that we think our smoke-loving, insanely committed Committee Members will go wild for.⁣

My tasting notes. 📋⁣⁣

• Nose. Sweet Peat, Sea Spray, Veg, Bacon and Lemon.⁣⁣

• Palate. Oak, Salt & Pepper, Fruit and BBQ Smoke.⁣⁣

• Finish. Oil, Pine Nuts, Seaweed, Ash and Cloves.⁣⁣

My opinion. - This Ardbeg, which is raw and smoky, is for me astonishingly good. Intimidating to some and certainly obnoxious, I feel this Islay whisky offers smells and flavours that are both welcomed and delicious. ⁣⁣

Ardbeg 8 - For Discussion is available via www.ardbeg.com RRP: £57.⁣⁣

For me the RRP of £57, is excellent value; however, other sites have it priced above £100, which I believe is excessive, and not even close to what the bottle is worth.⁣⁣
