Ardbeg 8 Year Old For Discussion is a Committee Release, bottled for members of the Ardbeg Committee. It is an Islay single malt with a smoky intensity that runs through the whole dram.
The nose opens with charcoal, creosote, tar and treacle toffee, with vegetal hints of fennel, celery and green pepper. Milk chocolate, aniseed and wood smoke follow, and a little water brings out fennel, coriander and lavender.
On the palate a peppery mouthfeel leads to treacle toffee, aniseed and salted caramel chocolate, then charcoal, smoked bacon and burnt toast. The finish is long, with peppermint and clove.
