Ardbeg Spectacular 46% 70cl
Ardbeg’s 2024 Fèis Ìle bottling has made it to our shores – and it’s a showstopper indeed. Spectacular is the first wholly matured Port cask expression from the iconic Islay distillery, introducing an array of new flavours to the characteristically smoky spirit. Expect to find an array of dark chocolate, candied fruit, mint and even incense candle notes in with the signature profile. The circus-themed release gives a hint to what we can expect for the distillery’s annual Ardbeg Day, this year marked on 1 June.
Tasting notes from Ardbeg:
Nose: Curiously perfumed and aromatic, a big top note of fragrant lavender tumbles into vetiver and incense candles. Down below, deeper notes of leather and wax dance alongside a rich almond nuttiness. A splash of water reveals gentle wisps of woodsmoke and damp peat moss. Hints of menthol hurl headlong into rich antique leather.
Palate: A viscous mouthfeel bursts forth to introduce a sparkling array of salty, sweet, and savoury flavours. Peat smoke, eucalyptus oil, minty chocolate and toffee mingle with smoked pecans, creosote, and tar. Subtle sweet pear crumble and fudge lurk in the background.
Finish: Finally, a long and lingering finale of salted caramel and cooling menthol brings this show-stopping spectacle of flavour to a close.
