Official Tasting notes for reference:

Nose:
Smoke rises with a cloying sweetness. Intense, pungent and aromatic, a distinctive farmyard scent drifts, along with a crunchy aroma, like creosote or tarry rope. A splash of water disturbs the vapours anddarkchocolate cream billows, laced with a ribbon ofsmokedartichoke.

Palate:
Ardbegs untamed darker flavours and notes have risen. A burst of bittersweetness surges, disturbing ashy coaldust and casting ahaze of cardamom, peppermint andcoffeegrits. Clouds of dark chocolate and mentholic eucalyptus roll in, obscuring the fruit and floral notes usually found at the heart of ardbeg. Wisps of aniseed twists, cinnamon balls and antiseptic lozengesfloat on the palate.

Finish:
The aftertaste lingerslong and bold, with an almost anaesthetising sensation.
