Description

Ardbeg Uigeadail (pronounced 'Oog-a-dal') is a heavily peated Islay single malt Scotch whisky, named after the loch that serves as the distillery's water source. It is a core range expression known for marrying deep, smoky notes from ex-bourbon American oak casks with luscious, raisin-like character from ex-sherry Oloroso casks. Bottled at cask strength and non-chill filtered, it offers a complex and rich profile. [3, 4, 9, 10, 14, 15, 19, 20, 23, 24, 26, 30, 31, 32, 34]

Nose
Rich and weighty with smoky aromatics, warm Christmas cake, walnut oil, parma violets, fresh ocean spice, cedar, pine needles, smouldering coal fire, well-oiled leather, treacle toffees, and chocolate-coated raisins. [3, 9, 17, 19, 28]
Palate
Full-flavoured and rich with a deep mouth-coating texture. An intriguing balance of sweet, spicy, and deep smoky flavours. Initially sweet, followed by a burst of winter spices, a smoky-spicy explosion, honey-glazed smoked food, chewy treacle, and waves of deep smoky tones. [3, 9, 17, 19, 28]
Finish
Amazingly long and chewy with lingering raisiny, deep mocha tones, and rich aromatic smoke. Perfectly integrated. [3, 9, 17, 19, 28]
