In Ardbeg Spectacular, smoky pear crumble and cooling menthol twist into notes of incense candles, performed lavender and antique leather. A curiosity sure to shock the world of distilling, this dram reveals itself for one day only – Ardbeg Day.

Color: Sunset Orange

Aroma: Curiously perfumed and aromatic, with lovely, fragrant top notes like lavender, vetiver and incense candles. Underneath this are some deeper notes, a touch of leather, some almond nuttiness, and a touch of wax. A splash of water opens up the bouquet, revealing touches of woodsmoke, damp peat moss, a hint of menthol and more antique leather.

Taste: The mouthfeel is salty, but viscous at the same time, and leads in to a burst of huge, salty, savoury, smoky flavours- eucalyptus oil, salted caramel toffee, smoked pecan nuts, fragrant woodsmoke, creosote and tar. There is also a background sweetness, like a smoky pear crumble and some fudge.

Finish: Finally on the long lingering aftertaste, more leather, salted caramel and a cooling mentholic sensation.
