Ardbeg Ten Years Old is a very special bottling for the Ardbeg distillery as it is the first non-chill filtered whisky in the Ardbeg range. Chill filtering isn`t a bad thing, in fact it created real consistency of product when the whisky industry was a little more `hap-hazard` than it is today. Ardbeg Ten Years Old is whisky with none of the goodness taken out and as good as straight from the cask.
Nose: Sweet peat, coal, Caramac bars, a faint floral soapy note, pepper and chilli. You know you're in for a treat. Palate: Very soft, mellow entry, then the spices and peat come through in a big way. Powerful, but with a balancing sweetness. Great length. Finish: Long and warming, with the smoke and pepper lasting longest. Comment: It's easy to see why this is so popular - spicy, sweet, and above all smoky. A great dram, well-balanced and with a lot going on.

Taste: Lots of peat. Very smooth with a lightly smoky finish, Sweet and fresh-tasting while still being heavy on the peat.
Nose: Peat. Almost no alcohol burn. Wet grass.
Palate
eat attack. Licking wooden bench in the park during a rain. Fresh cut grass, earthy. Pepper, and something sweet.
Ok, but I cannot give more than a 6. Ardbeg though is always a Ardbeg.
So nice, very soft, mellow and salty
