Description

Ardbeg An Oa is singularly rounded, due in no small part to time spent in a 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 - 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. It is non chill-filtered and bottled at 46.6% ABV.
