Ardbeg 10 Years Old is a benchmark single malt from the windswept island of Islay, crafted for lovers of intense peat and maritime character. Produced at one of Scotland’s most iconic distilleries, established in 1815, this whisky is renowned for its raw power, vibrant complexity, and unwavering authenticity. Non-chill filtered and aged for a full decade in ex-bourbon barrels, it delivers a tasting experience that is bold, layered, and endlessly captivating.
Appearance: Pale gold with luminous highlights. A light oily sheen clings to the glass, foreshadowing its rich texture.
Nose: Explosive and unmistakably Islay. A cloud of peat smoke rises first, loaded with iodine, sea spray, and medicinal notes. As it opens, layers of lemon peel, licorice, tar, smoked herbs, and vanilla emerge, offering a wild yet harmonious aromatic profile.
Palate: Intense and unfiltered in expression. The entry is briny and sharp, bursting with black pepper, aniseed, citrus oil, and smoldering peat. Mid-palate, it broadens into darker tones of dark chocolate, charred oak, menthol, and a whisper of espresso. The texture is rich and oily, with a finish that lingers on smoky, peppery, and earthy undertones.
Crafted with malted barley peated to over 50 ppm, Ardbeg 10 is matured exclusively in first-fill and refill ex-bourbon casks that enhance its smokiness while preserving its bright citrus backbone. Bottled at 46% ABV without chill filtration, it retains every bit of its natural oils and character. The result is a whisky that doesn’t compromise—intense, distinctive, and revered by aficionados around the world.
Ardbeg 10 Years Old is not simply a smoky dram—it is a complex, full-bodied journey that balances maritime strength with subtle finesse. Each sip is a vivid portrait of Islay’s wild Atlantic shores, the peat-rich soil, and a distilling tradition that refuses to be tamed.
12bouteilles' Tip: Enjoy neat in a tulip glass to explore its full aromatic range. A few drops of water can open new dimensions. Perfect alongside blue cheese, smoked meats, grilled langoustines, or a dark chocolate ganache dessert.
