A very aromatic whisky, with lovely herbal notes and a hint of moist peat bog, while storm-churned sea spray soars overhead. With water, some chocolatey notes appear, along with a touch of engine oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalate : A slightly drying mouthfeel, followed by deep, pungent flavours that hurtle across the palate: tar, soot, dark chocolate and a very distinctive nuttiness, like Brazil nuts or hazelnut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish : Plumes of fennel and pine billow up, leaving a long, lingering trail of carbolic soap, aniseed and leather.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Ardbeg \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArdbeg distillery has been producing whisky since 1798. The distillery is owned by Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy, and produces a heavily peated Islay whisky. The distillery uses malted barley sourced from the maltings in Port Ellen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ardbeg distillery was officially founded in 1815 by John McDougall. But Whisky was distilled there long before that. There are no documentations, as Ardbeg was an illegal business back in 1794. The distillery is now owned by LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy), which also owns Glenmorangie distillery in the Highlands of Scotland. The current capacity is just over one million litres per annum and its water source is Loch Uigeadail, after which one of its famous releases is named.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e46% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30ml\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ardbeg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54686679761221,"sku":"000073","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9495\/8661\/files\/3962050259_6fb7d4c8-7a7d-4c04-ba51-06509ff26f79.jpg?v=1746545545","url":"https:\/\/b1yyjg-bk.myshopify.com\/products\/ardbeg-smoketrails-travel-retail-exclusive-islay-single-malt-scotch-whisky-2023-3cl-sample","provider":"Whisky Situation Old","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
