"An onslaught of intense smoke, Lemon zest, menthol and leather. With a touch of water you get some lime juice, freshly cracked black pepper and salted caramel. Pair with Lindt sea salt chocolate just for fun."
"I love Ardbeg 10. I love Ardbeg. The special releases tend to be a little hit and miss but the 10 just remains consistent and never disappoints. Wonderful citrus and sweetness with the peat delivered beautifully. Long and lingering. I don't think there has been a day in my house in the last 15 years where there has not been an open bottle of Ardbeg 10."
"Lovely peaty whiskey. Review by M.D. really did cover it so very exceptionally well! I would almost like to say I would rather introduce someone to peat via Ardbeg for exactly the reason that it does not punch the way Laphroaig does and has some brilliant qualities for the price. 46% (so a bit more bang for your buck). Peat is so very well balanced with some of the other "fresher" flavours on both the nose and palate. Honestly, at this price I recommend it every day of the week. If you are new to peat and want to give that style of whiskey a try - this is a brilliant place to start."
"The undisputed “cheap” peat monster king. Personally I am a big fan of the Laphraoig 10, but this delivers the peat a little better."
"Complexity at it's most complex!"
"I fell in love with the Ardbeg 19yo a couple of years ago. Don't know if it's the taste of the whisky, the amazing ads or their cute mascot, but this whisky will always have a place in my heart. Make no mistake, it is a heavy, smokey peaty whisky, but with a perfectly balanced smoothness. Highly recommended"
"My first experience with peated whisky, the Ardbeg 10 led me into my love for the dark and smoky arts that Ardbeg does so well."
"Ardbeg 10 is one wild ride, from start to finish... Every time you pour a dram you should expect to taste a new facet to this fantastically priced Islay peated whisky. Whether it’s liquorice or crispy bacon, bonfire smoke to a bite of dark chocolate... Ardbeg 10 is your one-way ticket to Flavor Town (see you there, Guy Fieri). Just buy it already..."
"Dark, heavy and ominous smoke - forged in the fires of Mount Doom. Young orcs drink this to put hair on their chests"
"The finish is long and glorious indeed. Nose and palate is as the tasting notes say. If you enjoy strong (yet not overwhelming) peat, you'll enjoy this!"
