Ardbeg introduces a novelty with the Heavy Vapours. For the first time in Ardbeg’s history, it was distilled without a purifier. This filter above the still is crucial for the excellent balance of peat aromas and floral fruitiness.
Without purifier:
→ Heavy vapours also get into the whisky, as there is less reflux in the distillation. Hence the name Heavy Vapours.
→ The well-known balance of peaty, smoky notes and floral fruitiness shifts in favour of the smoky notes.
Official Tasting Note:
Aroma: Rising smoke with some sweetness. Intense, spicy and aromatic – a typical farm scent drifts with crisp aromas of old railway sleepers and tarred ropes. A splash of water interrupts the vapours and releases dark chocolate cream interwoven with smoked artichoke.
Taste: Ardbeg’s untamed dark flavours appear. A burst of bittersweet erupts, disrupting ashy charcoal dust and shedding a veil of cardamom, peppermint and coffee grounds. Clouds of dark chocolate with menthol eucalyptus rise, obscuring fruity floral notes that otherwise form the heart of Ardbeg. Swathes of aniseed, cinnamon biscuits and antiseptic lozenges on the tongue.
Finish: A long and powerful aftertaste.
