Ardbeg Uigeadail Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Ardbeg Uigeadail Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Matured in ex-bourbon American Oak and ex-Oloroso Sherry casks, Uigeadail - pronounced 'Ooga-dal' - is Gaelic for 'dark and mysterious place', named after the Ardbeg's water source, Loch Uigeadail.

• AROMA: Ardbeg Uigeadail Single Malt Scotch Whisky is rich and weighty with heady and smoky aromatics. At full strength, the initial aroma is a beguiling mix of warm Christmas cake, walnut oil and parma violets fused with fresh ocean spice, cedar and pine needles falling from the Christmas tree. A smouldering coal fire and the scent of well-oiled leather brings warmth. The sweetness of treacle toffees and chocolate-coated raisins emerge through the smoke. With water, the deep smokiness increases in intensity, reminiscent of a fired Christmas pudding. Rich flowering currants and warm baked banana and walnut bread are served with simmering mocha espresso.

• TASTE: Ardbeg Uigeadail Single Malt Scotch Whisky is full flavored and rich with a deep mouth-coating texture, the taste is an intriguing balance between sweet, spicy and deep smoky flavors. The flavor is initially sweet. A burst of winter spices sets off a smoky-spicy explosion countered by a sumptuous mid-palate of honey glazed smoked food and chewy treacle. Waves of deep smoky tones and rich aromas build up on the palate like a fine Montecristo cigar.

• FINISH: Ardbeg Uigeadail Single Malt Scotch Whisky is amazingly long and chewy with lingering raisiny, deep mocha tones and rich aromatic smoke into the perfectly integrated finish.
