Ardbeg Heavy Vapours Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
A fascinating one from Ardbeg, Heavy Vapours is the Islay distillery's whisky with the gloves taken off.
Meaning it was distilled without using Ardbeg’s purifier. Typically, vapours that rise up the still are captured by this piece of equipment, which sits on the lyne arm of Ardbeg’s spirit still. It captures heavier compounds and condenses them, causing them to fall back into the still. The vapours fall back into the still, are heated again, and so rise again.

Aroma | The smoky flavor emerges along with the cloying sweetness. Intense and aromatic; with a distinct farmyard smell, accompanied by crisp notes like creosote or tar rope. Splashes of water stirred up waves of steam and dark chocolate cream, accompanied by friezes of smoked artichokes. |

Palate | The original strong flavor and aromatic notes of Arbor are revealed. Coal has a bittersweet flavor, leading to hints of cardamom, mint, and coffee grounds. The flavors of dark chocolate and eucalyptus drift in like clouds, covering up the usual floral and fruity aroma of Arbor. Hints of anise, nutmeg and lozenges float on the palate. The finish is long-lasting and mellow. |
