Elements of Islay Ar10 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (500ml)

The Ardbegs have been some of the most sought after in the Elements of Islay series. Number ten has received glowing praise from reviewers who are otherwise hard markers. As usual, an all-natural cask strength whisky. According to the bottlers, expect a malt that's "Sweet and smoky, rich yet delicate with a key note of white chocolate". In short, the classic contradictions of the distillery that make it so revered.

Other reviews... such typical dry sooty seaweedy notes. Oh, and that touch of citrus, of course... the oils coat the mouth like a warm blanket over your winter bed...not an off note...sheer joy. 52.4% Alc./Vol.
