Ardbeg Dark Cove is an Islay single malt released for Ardbeg Day, bottled at 46.5% ABV. It was matured in ex-bourbon and dark sherry casks, which give it a brooding, layered character built around chocolate, dried fruit, spice and coastal peat. The nose is meaty, earthy and spicy, with dark chocolate, orange, treacle toffee and coffee. The palate is full-bodied, opening with raisins, dates, ginger and pepper before smouldering charcoal and cured smoked ham arrive. The finish is long and spicy, with toffee, coffee and tar, and a slightly tannic edge from the sherry casks.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
