Aroma: A powerful burst of smoked cream, mint and toffee with Ardbeg's classic notes of fennel and pine resin. The scent of a distant campfire mixes with herbal and fruity notes (banana and tropical fruit) and scented candle wax.

Geschmack: A lively, spicy-hot pepper flavor leads to a sweet rush of creamy lemon sorbet (with candied apples, pears and oranges), a hint of carbolic soap and tar, creamy toffee, anise and chili pepper.

Abgang: A long, mild, lingering aftertaste with plenty of cream, butterscotch and delicate, antiseptic notes, in the elegant, blissful Ardbeg style.
