Description

The Ardbeg Lord of the Isles is a highly sought-after 25-year-old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, bottled by the distillery between 2001 and 2007. It is named in honor of the ancient rulers of the Hebridean islands and the Kintyre peninsula. Matured in a combination of sherry and bourbon casks, this non-chill filtered expression is celebrated for its complex balance of smoky peat, maritime brine, and delicate sweetness, revealing layers of ripe fruit, citrus zest, and herbal freshness.

Nose
Deep, rich, and sweet with chocolate, marzipan, and cherries, surrounding a peaty center. Hints of leather, oily characteristics, cocoa, maltiness, dried fruit, sea breeze, honey, mineral notes, grapefruit, menthol, lavender, and a floral character.
Palate
Powerfully peaty and chewy, with a luscious silky and oily mouth-feel. Initially sweet with vanilla and chocolate, rapidly giving way to a crescendo of peat and cocoa. Smoky, citrusy, tart, with mineral notes, gentle campfire smoke, earthy peat, honey, charred oak, lemon, green apples, salt, and pine resin.
Finish
Long and dry with chocolate malt and crushed peat. Gentle honey, lingering wisps of sweet hickory, smoke, soft earthy peat, and pleasing mineral notes. Medium-to-short with smoke, saltier, more lemony with almond and pine resin aftertaste.
