Ardbeg 15 (Sestante) 1973

Sample 12/12 of the May tasting set


Initial Nose: Musk, baking soda, lemons, limes, sea spray. chalk


Nosing after time: chalky notes dominate the nose with a hint of seaweed


Palate: Oysters, chalk, nuts,


Finish: Cream and hints of seashells


Rather than peaty/smoky, I find this a much more savoury dram. Interesting maritime notes in the palate and much more approachable for me. A massive contrast the the modern Ardbeg 10 that pushed me away from whisky at the start.
