A replacement for the much-loved 1990 Airigh nam Beist, Ardbeg Corryvreckan had pretty big shoes to fill, but this Corryvreckan doesn't disappoint winning World's Best Single Malt Whisky at the World Whisky Awards 2010 and Best No Age Statement Scotch from Jim Murray's Whisky Bible.
Nose: Buttery & creamy with herbs and a hint of pine.
Palate: The creamy aspect follows through onto the nose with tingling spices, fresh fruit, medicinal, clementines and orange peels.
Finish: Salty, more medicinal, smoked meats, peat, tarmac, chilli and salt.
