Ardbeg Dark Cove

Released in 2016, another Limited Edition bottled by Ardbeg. Inspired by the history of whisky smuggling on Islay.

Matured in Bourbon Casks and “Dark” Sherry Casks. The nose is dark chocolate, rich treacle toffee with bonfires. Hints of pepper spice. On palate there is significant charcoal and peaty flavours, along with raisins, dates and ginger. A decent and spicy finish with hints of smoked ham.
