Ardbeg-1975-#4702
Bottled 20th October 1999. Distilled and bottled at Ardbeg Distillery Limited, Isle of Islay, Argyll.
Bottle number 44 of 261. Cask no. 4702, Sherry cask. In original carton. Good label. Level: top shoulder. "... Let's say older Ardbegs used to resemble proper cough medicine, if you like. Now what's proper cough medicine? A personal feeling, I would say. Finish: long, with wee fermentary touches that are just perfect. Almond milk and liquorice in the aftertaste. Comments: it's not unusual that 'sherry' and 'peat' are simply clashing, in my opinion, but proper sherry wood and old Ardbeg would just tango throughout the night, until WE are exhausted." (5 Stars-Whiskyfun)
