Ardbeg Heavy Vapours Islay Single Malt Scotch
Ships from San Diego, California
The purifier, responsible for Ardbeg’s exalted balance, has gone missing! And Heavy Vapours is the result - the most full-blown Ardbeg ever.
Without the purifier, all of those pungent, peaty vapors stay within the liquid changing the typical balance of flavors in an Ardbeg dram. Pungent earthiness, aromatic clouds of dark chocolate and sharp peppermint ascend. The aroma of this formidable smoky malt will take you to another dimension!
TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Intense, pungent & aromatic, with a distinctive farmyard, crunchy aroma, like creosote or tarry rope. The smoke is all dominating, but has a slightly sweet edge to it, almost like dark chocolate.
TASTE
The mouthfeel is spicy/warming, with an initial burst of bittersweet flavors – coal dust, cardamom, peppermint, eucalyptus, and more dark chocolate with some coffee grits.
FINISH
The aftertaste lingers long and bold with an ongoing, almost anaesthetizing sensation.
