The Ultimate - a whisky king from Islay
The 10-year-old entry into the product range is aptly called Ultimate and for many connoisseurs is easily at the top end of the top lists of whiskies that are characterized by a particularly strong character with excellent smoky notes. When further nuances of taste are added, even experienced connoisseurs get to know something new and unexpected.
Intense notes of smoke and peat characterize the main taste experience, which is skilfully accompanied by aftertastes of fruits such as apples and pineapples as well as vanilla notes and caramel in the finish. The rich, golden color of the Ardbeg The Ultimate supports the exciting mix royally. In particular, when combined with a nosing glass, the whisky has the best chance of developing its aroma and convincing on all sensory levels.
Taste for a special occasion
The Ultimate lives up to its name even on the second sip and surprises interested beginners of sophisticated spirits and experienced experts alike with a variety of finishes and aftertastes. In addition to the general note of salt water and seaweed, nuances of pear, cloves and liquorice also come to the fore. In addition to the intense smoke and peat aroma, the taste of mocha and pepper is also noticeable.
The Ardbeg Ultimate thus develops into a culinary companion that, once tasted, we would find it difficult to banish back to the bar. But why should we? Above all, it can be enjoyed intensively over long periods. The single malt is always recommended, especially in combination with fine smoked goods and as a way to round off a convivial evening.
