Ardbeg Heavy Vapours Committee Edition

Country: Scotland

Region: Islay

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 46%

Score: 93 Points

These notes are for the Ardbeg Committee edition of Heavy Vapours, and should be similar to the standard edition available to the public at large. The nose is peaty and phenolic with touches of heather, honey, lemon zest, and a hint of smoked salmon. The taste is oily and thick with a slow buildup of black pepper and notes of heather, honey, and a hint of lemon zest. The finish is long and peppery with a kick of peat and lemon zest.
