Ardbeg Twenty Something 23 Year Old is a really rich and complex expression and a rare find these days. On the nose, this dram has some initial vanilla aromas along with sweet smoke and old furniture, then some bubble gum, pinecone and chocolate develops. The palate is rich with notes of chocolate at first, then we start to taste the vanilla and dried fruits along with pine smoke and pine needles. The herbal finish balances it out perfectly, with a little spice on the tail. A really great expression!
