    Product Description

    A welcome addition to the Ultimate range. Ardbeg An Oa is singularly rounded, due in no small part to time spent in our newly established bespoke oak Gathering Vat where whiskies from several cask types - including; sweet Pedro Ximenez; spicy virgin charred oak; and intense ex-bourbon casks, amongst others - familiarise themselves with each other. The result is a dram with smoky power, mellowed by a delectable, smooth sweetness. Hallmark Ardbeg peat, dark chocolate and aniseed are wrapped in smooth, silky butterscotch, black pepper and clove, before rising to an intense crescendo of flavour.

     

    COLOR: Light Gold

    AROMA: Rounded and smoky - like burning Applewood - with creamy toffee, aniseed, treacle and dates. A curious suggestion of juicy fruits, such as peach and banana. With a drop of water, reminders of Ardbeg’s classic fragrance – lime, pine resin, fennel, saddle soap and tar. A gentle waxiness, like fragrant candle wax, and hints of smoked herbs. An Oa gives a final subtle reminder of the sea with briny notes and seaweed but always accompanied with creaminess.

    TASTE: A smooth, creamy texture leads into a huge syrupy sweetness, flavours of milk chocolate, treacle toffee, aniseed, orange and smoky tea leaves. Gentle, sweet spices (nutmeg & cinnamon), some cigar smoke, and a very unusual flavour of grilled artichokes. Wood is always present in the spirit, gently nutty and reminiscent of a carpenter’s workshop. A long, sweet finish, with floral overtones, mint toffee and some gentle malty biscuit notes.

    FINISH: Lingering, seductive, gentle yet intense, with flavours of aniseed, hickory and distant subtle smoke.

      A man with many scars

      Posted by Tomas on 16th Jan 2018

      So, you're not dealing here with a young, playful and sweet being. This reminded me of a grown, strong, solid force that has gone trough a journey of its own. You respect this force, and it respects you. The kind of being that doesn't waste its time with banal questions. If you ask the right things, you will get your answer. It's closed at first, but with the proper time, it will open up, let you in and get to know this wonderful aromas. Behind that initial wooden door, there is chocolate, marzipan, dark honey, pepper and some mint. Reminiscence of cookie dough, butter and aromatic oils. Nevertheless, you eventually get to the dark side of things, when you can see its scars. Waxy, salted scars, that where cured with iodine at some point. It was a pleasure to get to know this intriguing force, once a brute... tamed by the sea.
