Ardbeg Corryvreckan
Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 57.1%
Score: 92 Points
This is the worldwide release of Corryvreckan, which was released in 2008 as an Ardbeg Committee bottling. The usual Ardbeg peatiness is smooth and balanced on the nose, with notes of damp wood and brine. The taste is spicy, with a mix of smoke and jalapeno peppers that fades into a smooth maltiness, The finish doesn’t just linger…it moves in and stays for a while like a house guest! Outstanding!
